Snowy Egret Tug-of-War | Animal Winter Games


a tree in a Florida swamp Egret chicks
compete for food and attention from mob
down below hungry Gators gather where
there are wobbly chicks there’s the
promise of mana falling from heaven the
egrets seem as oblivious to the Gators
as the Gators seem obsessed with the
egrets it looks like a stand until a
Darwinian melodrama plays itself out in
an Escobar mccobb barely describes this
Egret version of Lord of the Flies in a
bid for survival to stronger chicks mall
a weaker sibling with the runt out of
the way there will be more food for the
other two
down below the alligators watch this
grizzly patch and eagerly the bigger
sibling stabbed and bludgeoned a little
one until he succumbs then the Gators
below make like n VA centers leaping for
a rebound at playoff time it may seem
mean to humans but it truly is survival
of the fittest
