Turtle Attacked Pelican: Tapas Khanra
A mother turtle attacked and broke a pelican's beak, which was trying to eat the baby turtle mistaking it to be a fish. The pelican could not survive long without its beak, it won't be able to have food, and cannot survive from enemies. It will die in a few days because of starving or being attacked and killed by predators.
