Categories: Animals | Conflict
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/39get-out39-great-skua-protects-chicks-from-sheep.htmlMothers are generally overprotective, but this hapless sheep didn't know what she was getting herself into when she wandered into the nesting area of the skua mother.
Photographer Josh Jaggard captured these scenes in the Shetland Islands - a bird panicked terribly, protecting her babies from a sheep. She made several menacing circles around the animal, then sat on its back and began to tear out large tufts from its fur.
