There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I wonder if these dogs had met midget anteaters before, that dog on the left made his moves fast and accurately while cautious same time. Poor anteater, I hope that it managed to flee in some way and not injured too badly :/ But dogs in that state of mind can be difficult to handle even if owner there. I didn´t see any other video of this same incident so difficult to say if the little one survived or not, but that didn´t look good :/
Unfortunatelly this happens many times as Midget Anteaters are very critically endangered species.
Midget anteaters try to do their best to fight off these large harassers led by humans and by their harassing vicious natures, despite not only being outnumbered but also outsized Midget anteaters still got to keep their balance standing as an way to defend itself and I really admire them for that (and by the mastery of their Jiu-Jitsu moves hehe), when cornered they will fight whatever it takes, but when its most powerful weapon goes in action, it can be painful.
In this case here there was 3 dogs led by humans harrasing one poor midget anteater and one of them payed the price and as usually happens the human had to step in to rescue the canid.
Hopefully that midget anteater managed to escape from being killed eventually but one thing I gotta say is that dog may have learned a lesson.
