Because pet ducks are generally raised on open ponds or lakes, they are subject to predation. Predators that can damage your duck flock include: turtles, owl, hawks, raccoons, skunks, opossums, cats, and dogs. If possible, your ducks should be maintained in an enclosure that prevents predator access.
The word 'orchid' is derived from the Greek word orchis which means testicles, and the name originates from the shape of the root tubers of the plant. It is due to this reason that orchids have been associated with sexuality in many cultures.
Most orchids are from the Tropics and Sub-tropics, where humidity is the norm. A lot of people in the US dislike humid placesâthey think it means heat, sweat and frizzy hair. But moisture in the air doesnât necessarily mean high temperatures.
