In inspiring foot, a Canadian goose takes a revenge flight against baby elephant who attempted to spook bird by spraying water at it from its trunk. Shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Officer Susanta Nanda, 34-second clip shows a mischievous baby elephant using his trunk as a water cann to scare goose who’s calmly perched on a pebble along shore of a lake, minding its own business. Zuri, young elephant splashes water at bird as it rests in her enclosure at Utah’s Hogle Zoo that soon ends up in a funny tussle between two creatures.
Anyed at fact that her by ‘personal pool’ was invaded, tenacious goose, despite categorized as a flightless bird, soars to sit on elephant’s back as a payback for his mischief. Susanta hailed goose’s “elephantine guts” for charging at tusker by fluttering close to his face as it desperately paces back and forth to get rid of persistent bird. Perhaps, Zuri failed to understand that bird had very much liked to stay by stream of water, relishing cool in summer's heat. While it was perturbed by mammoth creature due to advant it had over bird owing to its gigantic size and weight and a long trunk, goose decided to teach baby elephant some lessons.
