I watched this play out. Baby Crocodile was trying to mind its own business in the morning sunshine. Two Milky storks would not leave it alone. They didn’t try to hurt it, but just annoyed it into submission. The croc tried to grab them a few times, but they were pretty fast!

No, they hung around but they harassed the croc until it had to move to a place that they could keep an eye on it while they carried on feeding. The croc was getting more and more frustrated

Really fascinating to see how animals of all species engage in roughly analogous behaviors that are so relatable.
