Mallard ducks The Mallard Duck inhabits most wetlands, including parks, small ponds and rivers, and usually feeds by dabbling, or diving to the bottom for food, for plant food or grazing; there are reports of it eating frogs. They do not like to go far from their watery home, and their beaks have a sharp "nail" on the tip which helps them pick through grass to find small prey. Ducks adapt to their environment using their webbed feet to help them wade through the water. By Imshi

Food chain of an animal Ducks like to eat frogs, snails, fish and plants. Ducks with wide bills sift through the water and mud to find their favourite foods. Other types of ducks will dive for food. Ducks will eat grass, grain, acorns, insects, seeds, corn, fish eggs, plants they find in the water. I always fed the wild and tame ducks bread too. Ducks are found in many countries all over the world and inhabit freshwater spots such as ponds, lakes and surrounding marshes. The frog food chain consists of the frog eatingsmall insects like crickets, butterflies, and flies. Frogs usually eat insects, arachnids, crustaceans, worms, snails and slugs. Parts of a duck Frogs typically lay their eggs in water. The eggs hatch into aquatic larvae, called tadpoles, that have tails and internal gills. By Jianne
Life cycle By Salgai
Insects cycle To grow bigger, an insect needs to shed its tough outer exoskeleton, or moult. When the insect is ready, the old exoskeleton cracks open and the insect slowly crawls out. Free of its old ‘skin’, the insect stretches itself out, puffs itself up and dries out its new exoskeleton. Juvenile insects moult many times as they grow, often changing into quite different organisms by the adult stage. A change in form is known as metamorphosis. Depending upon the species, an insect’s life stages are characterised by either complete or incomplete metamorphosis. By Hawaiiki
