A video of a battle between a caged eagle and a duck has gone viral on social media. Uploaded by Indian Forest Service official Susanta Nanda, the video gives an important message. The video is not only causing awareness among citizens but it has also enraged them.
The 'dreadful' battle
The 12 seconds short video clips shows an eagle which is caged and a duck outside the cage. The eagle is seen tempting the duck by putting a piece of his meal near the cage. As a reaction, the duck tries to get hold of the food by using its beak. Furiously, the eagle holds the duck’s beak with his claw, leaving the duck completely restless. As we move towards the end of the video, the eagle is seen to be accompanied by his fellow caged eagles and the duck moves away from the cage, completely frightened but managing a great escape. The video has been captioned as, “You can cage it’s body, But you can’t cage it’s mind....( Free wild from cages & chains)”.
You can cage it’s body,

Why cage them, Sir? Let them fly to the Sky and glorify the skies too. They are made for skies. In this pandemic, even humans are feeling they are caged in their own homes than just think how these speechless (in sense of human understanding) awesome creations are feeling.....

Few days back, another such video went viral where a duck managed to escape and outsmart a tiger. The nine seconds video showed a tiger trying to hunt down a duck. The tiger is seen swimming towards the duck while the duck senses his presence and spontaneously ducks underwater. Very soon after this, the duck is seen emerging a few feets away, failing the tiger’s attempt at hunting. The video has been uploaded with a meme sound track in the background, adding on to the humorous element. Although the cat family is known for its amazing hunting skills, this time the duck turned out to be successful in trolling the tiger.
