Talk:Mandarin duck

message: Spotted one couple myself on the Marne river at Chelle-Gournay's natural park in France 29/03/2023. I don't know how to make maps but somebody who does should probably update the distribution map.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.3.242.72 (talk) 06:54, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

message: Whoever out there is doing distribution maps: can you revisit this one? For sure, the species is in the east of England—some friends and I saw 26 recently, including one albino drake—GRM 22:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The species was once widespread in eastern Asia, but it is now endangered despite being evaluated as Least Concern because of large-scale exports and the destruction of its forest habitat. 
What?  This doesn't make any sense.  If it's endangered why is it labeled least concern?  If it's not of concern, why are we saying it's really endangered?  What's going on? john k (talk) 00:00, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

  Male Mandarin Duck spotted in the Marina on the Llangollen Canal in Wales.U.K. Not sure if there were any females but was accompanied by Mallards male and female.My Grandson was facinated by the amazing plummage but thought he looked sad as ther were no others of his kind.

message: I have a couple of photographs taken May 4th, 2011 at the camp U Milano during a float on the Vltava River from Cesky Krumlov to Zlatá Koruna (about 50 minutes from start of trip) of a Mandarin Drake in full colorful plumage. The woman from the rafting company recognized the duck and was able to provide the Czech name so it evidently is very common in the district. 87.11.128.176 (talk) 16:36, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

message: Basic information to add to this article: why they are called "mandarin ducks" in English.
Also, why are they not eaten in Chinese culture? Do they not taste good? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 20:38, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
