    The ruddy duck is a small, diving duck native to North America that has invaded southern Canada, South and Central America, and Mexico. They are known for their stout, scoop-shaped bills, long tails often held upright, black caps contrasting with white cheeks, and aggression - especially during breeding season when they will chase rabbits along shorelines. There is no reward for catching these invasive ducks, but doing so can help the environment and native species they victimize, such as rabbits.
