 What purpose do the Duck’s webbed feet serve ?






Ducks use their feet to swim. Their webbed feet are uniquely designed to help them move through the water. A duck's foot has the ability to become wider. Ducks use their webbed feet like paddles to provide more surface to push against the water.



The taut skin between the duck's toes increases the surface of resistance in water and enables the duck to move forward. As it does not have fins to orient itself, its webbed feet also help it to change direction. Very useful in water, the webbed feet are less practical when walking!
