Moby Duck is a book written by Donoban Hohn. It is not about any specific "duck". It is about a discovery made about ocean currents and ocean ecology made recently with the help of an accident. 28,800 bath toys (mostly rubber ducks) were spilled into the northern Pacific Ocean in 1992. In 2005 some of these ducks were turning up in Maine (US) and along the US eastern seaboard.

The name Moby Duck is a joke taken derived from the book title "Moby Dick" by Herman Melville about a sea captain's obsession to kill Moby Dick, the name given to a giant white whale.
