I am sure this is a complete science myth.
A duck's quack does not echo.
How can I verify/falsify this without getting a duck?
Probably not. Can you quack like a duck? (And if so, do you walk
like a duck? Do you LOOK like a duck?)

Does sound echo?
Not usually, as far as I can tell.
Is a quack a sound?
Yes.
If the answer is yes to both questions,
Dang ...
Come to think of it, I've heard ducks quack but I've never heard a
quack echo.
