hunting

"Another day, another successful hunt. Can life be any more predictable and boring?"

That's the inner monologue we assume this snowy owl is currently reciting. 

Picture this, you're a gorgeous, majestic snowy owl. You have incredible wing span, can fly silently and have large talons deployed and ready to strike. You are fearless and feared by many.

Repetitive wins could eventually becoming your life's boring routine.  

Obviously, we have absolutely no idea and this owl could be expressing a surplus of joy and we wouldn't know. 

However, if we were only to go by looks and what we know boredom to look like... well, this is it. 

It has come to the worlds attention that coyotes and badgers are often in some sort of partnership when it comes to hunting. 

It's a pretty rare phenomenon to see two different species of predators working together to get their next meal. 

According to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, "Studies have shown that this unusual relationship is beneficial for both species. The coyote can chase down prey if it runs and the badger can dig after prey if it heads underground into its burrow systems."

Who knew?! Pretty amazing to see these two work together! And thanks to the Peninsula Open Space Trust, a recent video of the duo, on the hunt, has come out. 

Twitter user, Russ McSpadden, shared the video and sparked a thread about this wholesome friendship that users have come to love.
