does the duck die in peter and the wolf
Peter's grandfather scolds him for being outside in the meadow alone (``Suppose a wolf came out of the forest?''), and, when he defies him, saying: ``Boys like me are not afraid of wolves'', his grandfather takes him back into the house and locks the gate. Soon afterwards ``a big, grey wolf'' does indeed come out of the forest. The cat quickly climbs into a tree, but the duck, who has jumped out of the pond, is chased, overtaken, and swallowed by the wolf.
