Does a Duck's Quack Really Not Echo?

[Andy]

Dont suppose anyone here remembers the God damned ducks thread from the previous physicsforums, if they do they will remember that i asked this question assuming i knew the answer but without being able to confirm it. So hear we go again and let's see if anyone has any proof.

I read once on the internet that a ducks quack doesn't Echo, some of the people i knew at college beleived this and said that it had to be something odd about the soundwaves that are the ducks quack.

This is quite amusing but proove my assumption, that it has too echo because its a soundwave correct.

I'm surprised you didn't see the article Ivan Seeking started a thread about, roughly two months ago. Apparently someone proved they do echo. If I recall the thread was titled: "Quack, quack, quack." Something like that.
