Fun Fact Image 2

How to train your duck? "Training a duck for races involves building its running, flying, and swimming skills through focused mini-games, managing its energy with specific feeds (like super seeds), and reinforcing desired actions with positive rewards (treats/praise), using repetition and routine to teach commands like "come" or to navigate obstacles, focusing on core physical conditioning (cardio) and using positive reinforcement to build trust and responsiveness." Thanks AI :)
