1 How does the hunter try to attract the duck?
With a decoy, an instrument used in hunting to produce a particular sound or noise to attract birds or game
.
2 What is the hunter's first surprise?
The sound of the bullet hitting the duck is a metallic sound, not very common in ducks.
3 What is his second surprise?
He gets tied up by ducks.
4 What about the punch line?
The duck in the pond is in fact a submarine invented by the ducks to capture hunters.

This pun could be translated as "Kidnapped by ducks".
