I think the Hippocratic Oath only applies to sentient creatures. Otherwise, you end up like the Hindu caste that had to sweep in front of where they walked, to prevent killing creatures on accident.
Hey guys, the hippocratic oath refers to humans, not ducks. I’m sure Hippocrates ate lots of fowl, in his time. And the black haired beauty is right, they are dorks.
If anyone but Brewster said that, it would be clever and groanably punny. But he did say it, which just makes it dumb, since he doesn’t know he’s making a joke.

Were they standing on two piers wearing a certain brand of khakis?
Was each wearing a Pair O’ Dockers on a Pair O’ Docks?

If you take the Hippocratic oath to help as an absolute would you even be out trying to shoot the ducks in the first place?

They swap ducks and each enjoys a great meal!

Do no harm to humans doesn’t mean you can’t shoot ducks.

Correct; when chased by a bear, you only have to wound one lawyer.

And… If they are both named “Dack”, are Ѡ-Holes, and are intending to build patios, it would be the:
Pair-a-Dacks pair-a-decks pair-a-dicks pair-a-docs pair-a-ducks paradox….
