How were Howard the Duck's sound effects recorded?

Sound artists have all sorts of strange ways they come up with things...

Remember the story about original Star Wars ('77) and the sound for Laser Blasts. They hit a high tension steel cable (like utility pole support cables or something) with a hammer to create the “TWANG” sound of a Blaster.

Or how dinosaurs sounds in first Jurassic park movies were noises made by tortoise during sweet love time (maybe this won't get me banned) and then just modified on computer
