A Family of Clean Fowls

Leviticus 11:13-20
13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls;
they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the
ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 Every raven after his kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his
kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.
Duck is the common name for a large number of species in the waterfowl
family Anatidae, which also includes swans andgeese. The ducks are divided
among several subfamilies in the family Anatidae; they do not represent a
monophyletic group (the group of all descendants of a single common
ancestral species) but a form taxon, since swans and geese are not
considered ducks. Ducks are mostly aquatic birds, mostly smaller than the
swans and geese, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water.

Through careful study of the scriptures and illustrations of the characteristics
and eating habits of fowls: a conclusion can be made for what is designated
for man not to eat as
the common thread seen of the scripture above among unclean fowls are that
they are most likely carnivores, scavengers, hunters, or even predators such
as the duck.

Ducks and their feeding habits

However, the clean fowls that are designated for man to eat are of the
Phasianidae family.
Notice how this family survives based on their eating habits which are
uniquely similar.
The Phasianidae are a family of heavy, groundliving birds which includes
pheasants, partridges, junglefowl, chickens, Old World quail, and peafowl. The
family includes many of the most popular gamebirds.[1] The family is a large
one, and is occasionally broken up into two subfamilies, the Phasianinae, and
the Perdicinae. Sometimes, additional families and birds are treated as part of
this family. For example, the American Ornithologists' Union includes
Tetraonidae (grouse), Numididae (guineafowl), and Meleagrididae(turkeys) as
subfamilies in Phasianidae.
