I once 'owned' an extremely ill-tempered and savage Muscovy drake - he was 
quite capable of roughing up anyone who bothered him and did so on a few 
occasions. Six foot wing span, strong claws and a hook on the end of his beak - 
it was not much fun to take him on. He also had a good memory of people who had 
annoyed him in the past.
Noisy too - excellent watchduck.
Ducks are dangerous beasties.
