Due to being too hungry, a heron bird took a dose of a crocodile nest and caught a baby crocodile for lunch.While her aunt prepares to put her baby crocodile in her mouth, the mother crocodile appears and chases her heron . Unexpectedly attacked, the heron could not fly but could only run on the ground.
The heron only ran for a short time before having to release the baby crocodile to the ground to escape the aggression of the mother crocodile. This rare moment was recorded by female photographer Claudia Kuenkel.
' At first I saw a heron standing on the grass but didn't see anything special so I turned away. But then, a mother crocodile appeared and began chasing her heron, "Claudia Kuenkel recounted." Actually, I just realized the heron sucked on the baby crocodile when I reviewed the photos. At that time, I understood why the mother crocodile attacked her heron. Because, normally very rarely, her aunt is attacked by crocodiles . "
