Duck ducks boys under ice

Ducks in the Arctic show dexterity and agility when searching for bait in permafrost.

When the last rays of the day are about to disappear, thousands of ducks land on the cold waters of the Arctic to feed. The object they hunt is the boys at the bottom of the lake. The area where they landed was covered with thick ice, but there were still quite a lot of permafrost in the ice. The ducks just dive into those holes to find their prey.

They plunged down like arrows, scouring quickly at the bottom to find boys in the dark water. Everything must happen quickly because the duck can only hold his breath for a certain period of time. Then duck back to the water to breathe air. When they duck up, they have legs and do not do any movement, but their bodies still rise up like arrows, leaving long bubbles.

The permafrost in the Arctic provides duck food during the winter.
