  Subject: [NatureNS] Question: Underwater Predation Of Ducklings


        Hello All,

        My sister & her husband, who have a place on the Musquodoboit =
Harbour near to where it joins the Musquodoboit River, have seen, on =
several occasions, an unusual occurrence.
        A family of ducks will be swimming along (& the ducklings have =
been of varying ages, anywhere from quite young to fledgling, =
size-wise), when all of a sudden one would just disappear as if suddenly =
pulled under. It does not re-appear. The rest of the duck family skitter =
quickly away.
        They were wondering what would be the most likely type of animal =
that would and could do this. Seal, otter, some kind of fish, or bird?

        Thank you for your thoughts.
