Giant Duck Explodes

In Taiwan as part of their New Years celebration they had a giant inflatable duck. The duck was 59 feet tall and was created by a Dutch artist named Florentijn Hofman. The duck was located in the city of Keelung. The duck floated in the harbor.  It was supposed to last until the new year, but it exploded around noon. The once large duck turned into a large yellow disk that aimlessly floated around the harbor. The duck was later examined and thought to have been attacked by eagles. The eagles are believed to have scratched at it with their claws. This isn't the first incident in Taiwan that involved a large rubber duck according to a telegraph.
