Move over, sports cars—there's a new speedster in town! In Koniz, Switzerland, a radar camera captured a cheeky mallard zooming at 52km/h in a 30km/h zone. Yes, you read that right—a duck with serious speed! 🦆💨
Local authorities were both amused and astonished when they discovered that this feathered offender isn't a one-time wonder. Seven years ago, a remarkably similar duck was caught flying at the same brisk speed in the same spot, sparking plenty of curiosity.
The incident isn’t an April Fool's prank—experts at the Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS) confirmed that the calibrated equipment and sealed images rule out any tampering. This quirky case has quickly turned into a local legend, stirring conversations about tech, nature, and the unexpected intersections of both.
So, what do you think? Is this mallard just a lucky outlier or the start of a new wildlife speed record? Stay tuned for more updates on this flying phenomenon!
