No, these ducks are too small to protect against most preditors. They simply hiss and make noise. However, mallards can learn to protect themselves. My friend taught his pet mallard several ninja moves. For example, the flying webbed front kick and the round house bill smack. As a result his mallard have been witnessed killing several foxes last fall

Ducks are usually not aggressive, and will run if threatened usually. But if the duck is cornered, or protecting eggs and/or young, they can defend themselves by biting, which can hurt (I have ducks), or hit with the bony part of their wings.

Mallards are able to quack loudly to scare away predators. They are also able to pretend they are dead to escape being caught by an enemy.

Ducks have no defense mechanism as they are social birds.However they can charge to prod with their flat beaks. When on land they can fly away or wade into water.

Their only defence mechanisms are to hide (sometimes within a flock of birds) or fly away.

Some ducks, especially females, use camouflage.
