Rode on plane 5 years ago saw a woman back then that had to have a white duck with her! Scary to think about how these folks deal with daily life.

Ducks are generally a favorable likable animal. Plus he is small. A support ostrich or bison wouldn't go over too well. So I have no problem with this. You can't smell him, he won't cause mayhem and an occasional quack is no big deal.

Sounds like it should have been an episode of Friends back in their duck days.

I prefer support ducks to screaming, ill-mannered children.
