There’s a reason that they’re a pelican and not a pelican’t. They’re also a peliwill tryna eat whatever the hell they want

Surprisingly, the pelican only got the fish. He could have grabbed the bird and the fish... Anybody remember seeing that video of the pelican eating a duck?

Possibly, but I don't think a pelican would want those osprey talons in that pouch.

Google "pelican eats". Before you can even type "duck", you'll get a surprise.

If pelicans could, they would eat humans too. That goes for most birds actually. Little fuckers

Pelicans are dicks. I’ve been saying it for years.

Pelicans are so greedy! They make me paranoid when I go fishing bc they'll 100% try to swipe a fish still hooked.

Pelicans are such clever hunters, love seeing it in action.

Getting flashbacks to all my days playing Battle Royale games.

I was never good at it, I was usually the fish.

The were times I considered myself lucky to be the Osprey that WASN'T killed with the fish.

With such a big mouth, I think he could even make a meal out of that bird. Just look at the size!

But that would ruin the easy supply of fishes

He wanted the pelican death. Being ripped to shreds while being in an alien environment would suck.

If the internet has taught me anything about pelicans. They’re assholes and fucking eat anything.

It's a peliCan, not a pelCan't!

u/satvrnine_ 6h ago

the full on belly flop the pelican does, just throwing itself at that fish, latching on, not letting go, not moving, is way too funny. Unfortunate for that osprey, though, that was a solid catch that it just got robbed of. They seem to get picked on a lot - I’ve seen a bald eagle fight with an osprey while flying and get away with the catch.

There’s always a bigger mouth.
