A small deer attacked a giant rhino

In the Wrocław Zoo

A 13-kilogram muntjac fearlessly 'attacked' Marusya, a 1.7-ton Indian rhinoceros. All because of the male's desire to attract the female's attention during mating season. Fortunately, the giant Marusya took the bold little one with humor—she perceived the attack as play and did not respond with aggression. A real David versus Goliath at the zoo! 😄

Context

Such incidents in zoos occur when different species meet in confined spaces, but they usually remain safe for the animals.
