Four legged duck!

This little dude is bound to win some swimming races down the local pond. He has a very rare mutation which made him grow and extra pair of legs. Apparantly he won’t survive in the wild, but I’m sure he will be able to swim away from predators quicker than the other ducks!

Wow! What a mutation! You often here of little mutations, like the chicken with webbed feet but to have a duck grow an extra pair of legs!

You also get some mutation on humans don’t you, some of the more common ones are growing an extra finger, and some people even grow extra toes. Although they are not proeprly developed I do not believe.

Yeh, you do get similar things in humans, although not to the extent of extra legs! ha! My cousin I believe had a 6th finger, but it wasn’t fully formed, had no bones, which I think is generally the case.

This little dude is great though! He’s cool!
