*Item #:* SCP-XXXX

*Object Class:* Safe

*Special Containment Procedures:* The flash drive containing SCP-XXXX is to be stored within a standard secure containment locker. Access to the flash drive is restricted to personnel with clearance level 2 or higher for research purposes only.

Personnel are strictly prohibited from viewing the contents of SCP-XXXX once it is inserted into a computer. In the event of an SCP-XXXX-B instance, the affected individual is to be placed in a standard humanoid containment cell for further research.

*Description:* Description: SCP-XXXX is a GIF file stored on a standard 4-gigabyte USB flash drive. Upon visual exposure to the GIF, a duck running in a field of assorted flowers will be displayed on the screen.

Approximately 5-10 minutes after viewing the anomaly, the subject, now designated SCP-XXXX-B, will undergo significant mental changes, primarily manifesting as a belief in their identity as a duck. Notably, SCP-XXXX-B subjects do not exhibit any physical alterations to their body upon exposure. Further study is recommended to explore potential long-term effects.

*Addendum XXXX.1:* Discovery
SCP-XXXX came to the attention of the Foundation following a series of reports detailing unusual behavior exhibited by citizens. MTF Squad ETA-10 ("See No Evil") was deployed to investigate and retrieve the anomaly. After locating instances of the object downloaded onto several computers, the squad stored the GIF on a standard 4-gigabyte USB flash drive.

To mitigate the potential spread of SCP-XXXX's effects, Class-B amnestics were administered to affected citizens. Additionally, all instances of SCP-XXXX-B were secured for further testing.

*Experiment Log XXXX.1:*
*Subject:* D-9361
*Procedure:* SCP-XXXX played on a computer screen for D-9361.
*Observations:*

*Exposure Duration:* 7 minutes and 52 seconds.
*Results:* Subject D-9361 began to exhibit behavior resembling that of a duck, consistent with SCP-XXXX's anomalous effects.

*Experiment Log XXXX.2:*
*Subject:* One Pitbull
Procedure:* SCP-XXXX is played on a computer screen in front of the Pitbull
*Observations:*

*Exposure Duration:* 20 minutes
*Results:* No observable effects on the Pitbull, confirming that the anomalous effect is exclusive to humans.
