Yes, very frequently they will dive under water and latch themselves onto a stick or other type of structure.
Its heavy in there stomachs. So they drown :( Poor Ducks
Ducks swim in lakes and rivers- mostly small bodies of water. They almost never swim in oceans.most fresh water; Ponds, lakes, rivers
Well some insects can't get wet. For instance, A butterfly. Chinchillas are one of the animals that shouldn't get wet.
Ducks defend themselves by using their strong bills to bite or peck at predators, as well as by flapping their wings or swimming away quickly. Some ducks also have the ability to make loud quacking sounds or to fly away to escape danger.
Ducks have 2 legs.
Swans do not drown ducks. Not on purpose, at least. They do not harm each other.
no because ducks can swim like humans so they won't drown
As rule, no, but Australian musk ducks might.

Nope. They cant drown as they're heavy. If a light object such as a pin is put into water it drowns because its light. However, rubber ducks dont because they have more weight. Hope this helped :)
Ducks can drown or look like they are drowning when they are mating or - the obvious answer - fighting.Male ducks ( Drakes) will fight each other for mates and if you observe them will sometimes try and mate with a female in water..this looks like he is drowning her.Female ducks will sometimes (I have seen this with my own eyes) try to drown another duck's ducklings. This is a horrible sight. The cause of these 'killings' is the natural instinct to survive. The mothers both want their ducklings to have the best chance of survival.I hope this has helped you!
Their feathers don't absorb water, they're quite buoyant.
Ducks do not clean their young, their young are quite capable of cleaning themselves.
If a soldier was wounded and fell in mud during battle it is quite possible that they would drown if not rescued. This happened to many soldiers at Frommelles and Paschendale. It was always difficult and dangerous for stretcher bearers and other soldiers to rescue wounded men who were out in 'no mans land'. Because of this many men would be left until night or a time when it was safer to move out and collect them. You have to remember that at times there were hundreds of wounded soldiers laying in the mud. It was rare for a soldier wounded in their own trench to drown in mud. Even in battle there was always a mate nearby to drag them out of mud or water.
it causes oil spills and hurts animals such as ducks who land in the area effected and they drown.
they wash themselves in water and by preening
yes and any parents that say no then there rong
