Nothing to see here, just a badass breastfeeding mother rescuing her pet goose from a bald eagle… How’s your day going?

The brave mother-of-three (four if you count the goose?) has been hailed a hero after a TikTok video of her rescuing her beloved pet from its predator went viral.

@frankythegoose We have lost 3 chickens in the last week from what I was told was eagles which I believed hawks were preying on them but watch Frankie (our female goose) get taken.

Franky The Goose has her own TikTok account, which gives an insight into how loved this feathery friend is. And it might explain why her owner didn’t miss a beat before running to her rescue, despite being topless and mid-feed with her four-month-old baby.

Proof positive that you should never f*ck with a mother’s brood, human or not.
