In the past two days, Typhoon Capricorn, the 11th typhoon this year, has made landfall on Luzon Island in the Philippines, Wenchang City in Hainan Province, Xuwen County in Guangdong Province, and Guangning Province in Vietnam. It became the strongest autumn typhoon to land in my country since 1949. It remained at the super typhoon level for as long as 64 hours, causing serious disasters in many places.
An online video showed that on September 6, Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province encountered Typhoon "Capricorn", but a group of ducks stood firm and motionless in the typhoon weather. According to Ms. Li, an eyewitness interviewed by Sichuan Watch at the time, "The maximum wind force at that time had reached level 11 or 12, and the telephone poles were blown down. There were twenty or thirty ducks standing there steadily."
Why is it that a duck that usually staggers when walking can remain stable in such harsh typhoon weather? Netizens launched a heated discussion. Some netizens speculated that there might be a special reason. "Is it possible to do some research and create some windproof buildings?" Some netizens explained, "I finally know why aircraft design is called a duck layout."
According to the analysis of Sichuan Online's "Tai Tao Ke" column, on the one hand, ducks have excellent self-balancing ability. Their necks are short, and the distance between the center of gravity of the body and the center of gravity of the head and neck is close, especially when the neck is shortened, the distance between the two centers of gravity will be closer.
on the other hand. Ducks have wide webbed feet that can grip the ground stably. In addition, the rough skin and flesh bones also have a certain anti-slip effect, which can provide better stability on the shore. In addition, ducks can control their body balance by adjusting the angle of their wings.
Finally, for poultry animals that live in groups, trampling may easily occur if they run around, but standing still can avoid other risks.
