Pleading for help!!

That is what the body language and desperation of the crow seem to speak. While the crow tried to get out of the pond by any way possible the bear stood by watching patiently. It seemed to wait for the crow to make the best effort, and then jump in the picture. In the video uploaded ahead, it can be seen lurking around, in no hurry, looking for some other food item in its residence.

Anticipation

The spectators stood by watching, children in horror. They just knew that escaping was no longer an option for the crow- it was only a matter of how the crow died- by drowning or by becoming Vali’s snack. Even though the language in the video ahead is not decipherable, because it is Hungarian, it is clear from the excited voices of the people that, it’s the crow’s fate they were discussing. But what actually happened, no one saw coming.

“Come Here You”

The bear had waited enough. When Vali was sure that the crow could not escape, either by flapping its wing or by taking the help of the edge of the rock, she put her claw into the pond to fish out the crow. However, even on the brink of death, the crow seemed determined not to die by becoming the food of Vali. It fought Vali’s grip but she was obviously at an advantage because of the virtue of her being a bear and on safe ground.

Nipping

By now Vali had put even her mouth in the pond, and the crow was trapped under one of her claws. There was literally no escape. However, when Vali was trying to put the crow in her mouth, it nipped at her nose sharply. As if warning her, even in its dire condition. Vali seemed a little taken aback but that did not stop from putting the crow in her mouth, everyone thought it was the end of Vali but as the video clip shows, that is not quite true.

“Am I Alive?”

After moments of lying still the crow shook, as if from a stupor and looked all puzzled. Vali’s back was turned to it and half on its back, it just kept staring at Vali, surprised that it was still alive and quite unable to do anything else because the entire ordeal of struggling in the water and trying not to be eaten by a bear drained out all the energy this crow had. What was happening? And this was the question even the spectators seem to be asking.

Bearly Existing

The crow flipped and stood up on its feet but barely. In the video clip, it can be seen shivering, almost weightless, bamboozled by what was happening, or not happening. Its confusing and surprise are clearly visible in its demeanor. It could not deal with the fact that the bear actually saved it instead of snapping its wings and eating it by the side of the pond. But did the bear really save the crow?
