Byrdman, where did you get this information ? I have literature going back way before the 70's with no mention of any live Labrador ducks anywhere ? as Nancy states,  they have been extinct for a long time now, I sincerely hope it is true, but I think it is very unlikely.
They have more chance finding a pink headed duck in my garden  Grin

I'm from Missouri.  (originally, that is.)

SHOW ME.

Otherwise, I'm going to have to call BS on this one.

Could you possibly be thinking of pink-headed ducks instead of Labrador ducks? I have heard similar claims made about them, and there legitimately were some of those in captivity - at least for a short time.
