In a battle of wolf pup vs. squirrel, the pup learns a valuable lesson. Sometimes, lunch bites back. A trail camera caught the battle on video, and Voyageurs Wolf Project shared the rare footage on YouTube.

In the video, which starts with a slow motion preview of the moment the squirrel draws blood by biting the wolf on the nose, you can see a wolf spot a squirrel, then start to nip at it rather playfully. (But we’re sure the squirrel is not having a good time.)

The squirrel seems to be successfully fighting back, since the wolf drops it multiple times instead of just ending it. It may seem like a wolf would have no problem fighting a squirrel, but this squirrel is here to rumble.

We never get to see the end of this battle. Do you think the squirrel walks away from this? Or was the wolf just playing with its lunch?
