Muscovy Duck edit
Three problems.
- The clutch size and incubation time already occurs earlier in the article. If you disagree with the figures, change them, don't just add a contradictory section
- talk of promiscuity and rape is very POV, imposing human values on a bird which acts from instinct and is incapable of making moral judgements.
- The bit on Florida is rather parochial for a species with such a large range, but my main concern with that section is that putting in suggestions is non-enc. I suppose that it could be reinstated if rephrased eg "legal methods of control include..."
Hope this help - the whole article needs a good tidy really. jimfbleak 05:15, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
