Kris Miller was trimming trees around Nordic Mountain country park, Wisconsin, USA, earlier this month when he spotted a red tailed hawk dead on the ground.
After checking CCTV from June 11, the 29-year-old operations manager was 'astonished' when he saw the bird of prey swoop down on an unsuspecting rabbit below.

That took about thirty seconds to go from, "Cool she saved the rabbit." to "Holy shit that was personal."
-
Bloody hell! I was expecting a graceful and quick 'save' and trot off, not Bambi going absolutely nuclear and stamping a Hawk in to playdough.
-
That Hawk definitely didn’t start his day thinking he was gonna get killed by a crazy deer
-
That deer and rabbit must have been VERY good friends!
-
This wasn't about the rabbit, this was personal
-
You kind of felt bad for the rabbit 🐇😔, then you're like "dang, I really feel bad for that hawk." Geez! 😕
-
"Defends Rabbit" does not adequately describe what I just watched. ;)
-
Even that other deer was like, chica, let it go.
-
That deer ran in like he was practicing for that moment his entire life
-
Incredible - At first I felt sorry for the rabbit, then I felt sorry for the hawk.
-
That has got to be the most pissed-off deer in existence. The other deer comes in like "You okay, bro?" and the first deer is like, "In a moment, man, I've gotta finish him off."
-
That's not defending a rabbit, that's settling a score.
-
This is one of those things that if you witnessed this with your own eyes and tried to tell someone, no one would believe you. Incredible this was caught on video.
-
Deer: "I had a bad experience with birds as a fawn." Semi-comatose Hawk: "You don't say..."
-
Deer had flashbacks to being a lil baby fawn in the big ole world and wasn't about to let that hawk forget its place.
-
Rabbit sounded like a baby doe crying! Bambi’s mama instincts kicked in!
-
Beginning of video: Aw, that baby deer is a kind-hearted, gentle soul. End of video: That deer is a sociopathic scourge on the forest.
-
Hawk “I’m an apex predator” Bambi “I’m about to stomp your ass down the food chain!”
-
Legend has it the deer is still beating the crap out of the hawk to this day.
-
The other deer was like - dude that’s enough
