    Bird - Dick King-Smith HQ @DickKingSmith ... "The tallest mallard duck to have ever lived (since records began) known as 'Long Boi.' He lives on the campus of the University of York, England. He stands just over 1m tall (3.5ft)." 8:54 AM Apr 29, 2021 Twitter Web App 32.5K Retweets 9,645 Quote Tweets 208.2K Likes

    Oh wow, we could only dream of going to university with this magnificent creature. This guy could probably grab the bread we toss into the middle of the pond by just bending its head forward. We wish we had some pictures of him floating around as well. Yeah, we have definitely fallen in love with the guy.

    Font - Dick King-Smith HQ @DickKingSmith Replying to @DickKingSmith Of course, he isn't known as Long Boi by his duck friends. His true name is Robert Wadlow. 1:40 PM · Apr 29, 2021 - Twitter for Android 125 Retweets 13 Quote Tweets 4,058 Likes

    Robert Wadlow is such a dignified name. It fits this dignified duck much, much better than long boi. And yet, we can't help but feel some longing for the name long boi even though it's so meme-y and unfitting this magestic creature. It's simply as iconic as he is at this point, and we accept it.

Where we successfully spliced the DNA of an ordinary duck with a giraffe.
