Blekinge Duck

THIS SPECIES IS CRITICALLY ENDANGERED. Blekinge duck or Blekingeanka is a Swedish ruddy duck with white patches and a white neck, although there are also reports of sightings of pure-white Blekinge ducks. The legs and beaks are yellow-orange or orange, with black tips.

There are only around 200 of these ducks, which is why they are considered to be one of the most endangered birds in the world. This hardy breed is suited for northern climates, and the ducks were traditionally brought into the stables during winter, then released when summer came.
