They do echo but it is something to do with the frequency. The quack and the echo are so close together that you can麓t hear he difference. You have to use special recording equipment and then it shows up as a separate sound wave travelling very close behind the initial sound.


It does echo, its just a myth that it doesnt;)

because duck quacks aren't loud enough to echo. Also, when do u ever see a duck in an area where there is an echo. I'm not really sure actually..might have something to do with wave lengths or something special of that nature. Good luck though
Just a myth. A duck's quack will echo.

cos theyre outside and often not near enough to a surface that the sound can bounce off to create the echo
Under the right circumstances, any noise will echo.

It's a myth.


There was an episode on mythbusters (the show on Discovery Channel) about this, it was episode number 8 in case you are interested, plus I found this info on:
