University of York students pay tribute to missing campus duck Long Boi

  1. Apparently it’s an ‘indian running duck’ so the chances of him flying to fresh pastures are pretty slim, as they don’t fly. Credit to Greg James’ radio 1 show yesterday for this fact.

  2. I remember only two serious offences mentioned in the University of York student handbook. One was climbing on the covered walkways, the other was harming any of the waterfowl. All praise Long Boi.

  3. still remember the first time I saw him, no-one believed me when I got into the office talking about a vertical duck

    finally saw him walking back with a friend and they were kinda amazed I wasn’t exaggerating, but we figured he just had a spinal deformity or something… then he jumped into the lake and there were only normal ducks swimming so we walked back solemnly, wondering if we’d just witnessed a duck choosing to end his own suffering

    then we learned about indian runner ducks, and he went viral, so now I’ll be very sad if he’s no longer with us

    10/10, great duck, would recommend

  4. Never knew I could be so devasted by the dissapearance of a duck I’d never heard of. Hope you’re alright Long Boi <3 Miss you big man

  5. My favourite fun fact about any university is that at University of York they arrange their breaks around goose mating season

  6. Dog owners often allow their off leash dogs to kill wildlife and then just fuck off and don’t tell anyone.

    Been a lot of park swan deaths. And that famous peacock as well.

    My bet is on arsehole dog + owner

  7. You know he’s not really dead, don’t you? What he did was he faked his own death so that he could work undercover for the Hong Kong police, infiltrating drugs gangs and the Triads.
