Mouse (Rat) VS Bird Fight Footage

A rare video with an animal fight I managed to shoot by coincidence. A rat fights for survival with a bird.

Filmed this while having a nap on a bench in Madrid. I heard that strange sound and I was quite surprised to see this duel. It looks like a magpie but not sure and a mouse or small rat maybe? At the end you can see that there were more of the birds and well I just couldn't watch that any longer, went there to save the mouse. Moved it to a safe place and gave it a piece of bread.

Bird: My ancestors were dinosaurs! What were yours?
Rat: My ancestors were...well...pretty much like me...

It's not the bird's fault that the rat's tail look like a worm.

damn first time feeling sorry for a rat you could even see the sadness and fear and many other emotions in its eye's man my heart feels rather heavy right now

1:36 the rat has having bird attacking its family flashbacks

Folks, spare us your bleeding hearts. That same rat would have no problem eating immature birds in a nest.

1:37 holy shit thats the saddest looking rat ive ever seen

[kmaassociates]

Being raised around farms it surprises me that the birds didn't make it a joint effort. I've seen chickens dismember and share snakes as well as eat field mice whole !

The worst part is he's not even trying to eat him he's just toying with him.

Magpie boxed very well in the opening round, controlling the pace throughout and held the centre of the path. The long to mid range pecks, great footwork, Roland had no answer. Later in the round, Magpie had Roland backed into a corner with hard straight pecks, Roland fought back with some excellent counter attacks and had some nice defensive head movement, was it enough to win the round for Roland? I don't think he so. A 10-8 round magpie, he is definitely up on the scorecards. Roland's corner will have some choice words and will have to change a few things in the next few rounds or it could be a bad night for Roland, the ref could stop things early.

Not gonna lie when he zoomed in on the rat it’s head on was just resting on the ground and it’s eyes were tearing up.. I felt bad

That age old scene where a dinosaur's busy taking out his aggression on the mammals who stole his planet XP

Too many have watched Disney instead of Discovery and it shows.

[jamesdaple]

So sad those magpies are as brutal as humans

[JuvenileLeech]

Just a prank bro! The camera's right there.

[jcrosas]

Being peck to death is pretty scary now that I've think about it

[terryscott]

You can see the immense sadness it the rat's eyes.

[PigeonsRelatable]

Epic interaction / video!! Whats the magpies problem?! Such a bully!!

[zarbonthebeauty]

First time I actually felt bad for a rat.

[deadskull]

Mouse:Whats wrong with you leave me alone.
Bird:im hungry

[lizzyyork]

I never thought I'd say this but that zoom in on the sad face makes me wish I could have taken him home as a pet. Poor thing!
