Where are you from friend?

Live safely ..keep kids & pets away from the woods ...they are cunning & opportunistic hunters ...

@@rohanchoudhury8043 ?? These martens are hardly bigger than a ferret. They're not going to attack your kids.

@@alexanderkrummholtz1589 ...Go & camp in a Marten inhabited wood for a month ...Brother 2 martens can even kill a medium sized deer ..Your kid is just toy of few minutes for a Marten

They are killing machines. Large to the smallest.

Often stalks and kills prey much larger than itself. Gotta be impressed by that.

@@richardoconnor2560 Yeah like the weasel, this family gender is awesome.

Dejan Jankovic.Chelsea. North Macedonia.Skopje...

@@richardoconnor2560 Idiot. Leopard can chew those weasels in half.

The Marten is NO match against the raptor: 0:44 even on the ground(the Marten's element), the bird has faster reflexes. In and around an open field, nolo contendre for the rodent.

The rodent was OWNED at 0:44 ...not a f--king chance!

That's so crazy I read this comment randomly after asking someone if the goshawk could kill a marten! Because this hawk attacked this full grown marten and the marten tried for the hawk.. Even match?? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdVoYKSjpt3Zgo0.html

That is rare footage. I’ve seen all kinds of animals in the wild. Seeing two predators go at it is special. Both are beautiful, healthy animals.

on the contrary, hawks sometimes feed on martens, this marten just drove the male away from the meat. A marten will never kill a hawk, especially a female

@@xlebushek-p8w They will both eat each other when they have the chance. It is not one way or the other. Both species have young, old, strong or weak individuals so it depends on the circumstances.

@@forestdwellerresearch6593 Maybe marten kill juvenile, adult bird especially female can kill marten when that attack

Je pense que c'est l' être humain qui est un envahisseurs,qui empiète dans l'habitat des animaux

The rodent misses terribly at 0:44 ...

@@rolexomegaspecialist9411 Martens aren't rodents. They're mustelids which are carnivores like cats and dogs.

Someday we're gonna ban that $h!t. It can't come soon enough.

The equation behind that statement can solve problems and save lifes.

😂🤣😂🤣 Same here adorable

He try to fly, it was funny.😆

Hardly; the hawk more likely the lucky one. Martens are fierce predators on the same side of the food chain; they eat similar things. It's like watching a tiger and a lion fight over food. Martens can fatally wound bobcats and kill deer, things that hawk would consider impossible. Martens are mustelids, related to weasels and the famous wolverine and honey badger.

o yea.. he didnt struggle one bit

Not that much do-do. We just be carrying guns more.

If it were possible, nature/evolution would have done it already. That sort of body plan doesn't work at larger sizes and heavier weights.

Who's Martin?

Graham Davies...? OK, OK, OK, ★ -M -A -R -T -E -N- ★ 😂Don't worry, keyword change😂.

ras222 I was just wondering if that hawk could kill the marten. May be if he ambushed it well, and really put the kill hold on. I know martens are vicious little fuckers too

CANDID PETS yeah true. Red tail or a great horned could put the squeeze on that marten lol

@@carlobrigante4764 7

@@carlobrigante4764 not without risk!

@@carlobrigante4764 yes the can , but it is risky. it’s if it can get he upper hand really

He is succeeding. He's eating it while he hangs on.

He had hims air jordans on size .25

@@Luigi110067 Lol

your crazy if you think it can eat an eagle maybe the other way around

@@TzsNatureWithJameelFar it can!

If it got a grip of it on the ground it could cause it some damage

I’ve seen a weasel have caged Bald Eagles on the run ! His intent was to kill and they knew it!

@@dreswan1 I saw that same video. Mustelids are the most badass animal family

Pound for pound? Any species of temperate shrew of the genus Sorex! What a mess that would be!!!!!

Pretty sure a lot of insects would win in 'pound for pound'

The hawk would've been stupid thinking that was food. *Marten of that size can kill deer* and wound a Bobcat to death. They're mustelids, related to the badger. The hawk and the marten hunt the same food; they're pretty much equals on the food chain; except marten will hunt and kill things that hawk would never even consider. Taking that home as prey would be like a tiger trying to hunt a lion.

???!!! Exactly what "eagle" are you referring to??!!

What if , it was a Leopard and not a Marten...?? If if if if if ,but it's not

Molecular not sure about hawks! I’ve seen a vid where the hawk missed the head of the matin only to have Martin break it’s leg with its teeth and then killed the hawk.. so no, hawks are just mistaking the marten for a squirrel 😂. I would say it’s a costly mistake

Great question! We talked to one of our marten experts, and they were unable to determine whether this animal was male or female. American (aka Pine) marten are sexually dimorphic, meaning that males and females differ in appearance, but it is their size rather than the appearance of their underbelly that allows observers to differentiate between male and female marten. Male marten, on average, are 15% longer and as much as 65% heavier than females, but it is difficult to be certain whether an animal is male or female using video alone. Some conservation projects using video analysis add a hair snagging device at the camera station so that researchers can find out additional information about individual animals captured on camera: see kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mJt0n9ufxNq2qYE.html for an example of a project using this technique on wolverines.

If you're interested in the perception of time, you should read Oliver Sacks on that subject.

Martens have massive balls regardless of their gender 😂

People report they bring down deer.

They can kill any one they just have to manage to get on the back of large anillmals with their speed ,then they will create deadly wound in few minutes

Pine cone of course.

Probably roadkill of some kind. Marten are strict carnivores.

It's a mustelid, of the weasel family related to the famously fierce honey badger. The animal you saw jumping at the hawk can kill deer, take down birds as big as the hawk, and fatally wound bobcats. The marten and birds of prey like the hawk are equals on the food chain; they eat the same things, except the marten is willing to fight and hunt things that hawk would never dream of. This is the equivalent to a tiger and a lion fighting over food.

@@chopsticks9984 Pine Martens do not attack deer. They only weigh a couple of pounds. I believe you're thinking of a much bigger Asian type of Marten that attacks very small species of deer.
