Anas platyrhynchos

The male is grayish with green head, narrow white ring around neck, ruddy breast, and white tail. The female is a mottled brown duck with whitish tail and conspicuous white borders on each side of metallic violet-blue wing-patch. [Pg.113]

Breeding occurs in western North America east to Great Lakes area Winters from Great Lakes and southern New England south to the Gulf of Mexico. [Pg.114]

Species commonly used in acute and chronic toxicity testing as a representative waterfowl. [Pg.114]


Birds are comparatively resistant to the biocidal properties of cadmium. Adult drake mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) fed up to 200 mg cadmium per kg diet for 90 days all survived with no loss of body weight (White and Linley 1978). Laying hens fed 200 mg Cd/kg diet also survived egg production was suppressed at that concentration but not at lower concentrations (White and Linley 1978). Marine and terrestrial animals, including ducks, have been shown to be particularly abundant in a wildlife community associated with a marine sewer outfall (Brown et al. 1977). These animals were contaminated with high levels of cadmium, as well as zinc and copper, but were apparently protected from the deleterious effects of high metal body burdens by metallothioneins.
