Storyful
Here’s a wild birthday party these kids won’t forget … they got a front-row seat to see a massive bear devour a family of baby ducks. Yeah, pretty grizzly scene.
The brown bear’s unscheduled snack/murder spree begins when a family of ducks — a mother and her 5 ducklings — fly into Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo to go for a swim in a cool, inviting pool.
Big mistake, Mama Duck. Huge.
The bear, identified as “Juniper” by the person who posted the TikTok, almost immediately sees the duck family … and its killer instinct takes over, clocking the ducks’ path across the water.
Then, Juniper plunges into the pool, gliding swiftly toward the family — and she picks off each of the ducklings one by one, gulping them down with barely a bite.
BTW … if you’re hoping Juniper had the courtesy to fill her belly further away from the children’s curious eyes, sorry to disappoint — watch the clip, Juniper’s snapping up some of the ducklings right in front of the kiddos.
Looks like Mama Duck escapes Juniper’s jaws … but, the little ones never really stood a chance.
According to Woodland Park Zoo, they have a couple brown bears they rescued … Juniper and Fern — both females and roughly the same age, but many local news outlets and people online are sure it’s Juniper who filled up on duck.
