Steven Takata’s brother-in-law enjoys taking selfies. That is, using your camera or smart phone to take a picture of yourself. If there’s one rule of taking selfies though, it’s to be wary of taking them with animals. That rule goes double for the trumpeter swan, as Takata’s brother-in-law painfully learned.
Takata was with his family at the Great Bend Zoo in Kansas in mid-July. During the visit his brother-in-law tried to mix his favorite photographic past time with this selfie hating species of swan.
The results were painful, and hilarious.
Despite his close call with nature, Takata’s brother-in-law still managed to get a picture with the swan.
Luckily, there were no injuries aside from a nasty red mark. At least he wasn’t doing duck face for the photo. Don’t forget to share this hilarious story on Facebook by clicking below.
