'''D.D.s'''<ref name="EN Manual"/> (short for '''Dangerous Duck''')<ref name="EN Manual"/> are enemies in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]], appearing only in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'' and ''[[Wario Land II]]''. D.D.s are anthropomorphic ducks, wearing striped bandanas and goggles, and members of [[Captain Syrup]]'s pirate crew, the [[Black Sugar Gang]]. D.D. wield a [[boomerang]] as a weapon and have an attack pattern reminiscent to that of a [[Boomerang Bro]]ther. When a D.D. spots [[Wario]], it will stop walking, swing its boomerang in its hand three times, and then throw it at Wario, damaging him if it hits him. D.D.s can be stunned and picked up, but since D.D.s are one of the heavier enemies, Wario is slowed as he moves around while carrying one.

D.D.s received some changes in ''Wario Land II'', which made them and their boomerangs slightly smaller, and the latter spin faster. In the [[Game Boy Color]] version, they are usually given an orange, mint green, and dark blue palette, though four D.D.s in the level [[Defeat four ducks!]], where Wario has to find and defeat four of them, were given a deep red, blue, and black color palette.

Additionally, in ''Wario Land II'', an unlockable [[minigame]] titled [[Flagman D-D]] can be accessed after achieving a 100% [[completion]] rating. It features a D.D. as a host, along with a [[White puff]] and a [[Gugi]].
