Clarifying Why the Muscovy Duck is Kosher: A Factually Accurate Response
This is an article from Hakirah vol. 11.
Within the last year a specific kashrut agency and its affiliated rabbinic group in the US issued strongly worded position statements declaring that Muscovy is unquestionably and definitively non-kosher because, they assert, it is a dores (predator) and therefore one would be required to kasher a pot in which Muscovy had been cooked. An investigation into the basis of these rulings reveals factual errors and flawed methodology.
