A duckling owned by a 74-year-old woman is popular among her neighbors for its unique habit of liking pretty girls.

Duckling follows girls who aren't ugly ducklings

"The duck seems to understand human nature. It follows me wherever I go and show intimacies with me by pecking at my shoes or trouser legs of the pretty girls we meet," Guo Shuxin, the keeper, said.

It's so fond of well-dressed girls that it often follows them to their homes and refuses to walk home by itself, her neighbors in Dalian, Liaoning province, said.

"The girls have to escort such a lechery pet duck home because they know its keeper well and like the pet so much," she said.
