A wildlife encounter turned into a memorable sight for one passer-by.
Stomper Siew Kuen spotted a myna seemingly attacking a monitor lizard in a canal near Bukit Panjang MRT station on the evening of April 4.
The bird appeared relentless in its attack, while the reptile remained largely unfazed — a contrast that left the Stomper impressed.
“The Javan myna was seen aggressively swooping down and pecking at a Malayan water monitor in the drain,” she recounted.
“It repeatedly dive-bombed the lizard, flapping loudly and staying just out of reach, while the lizard kept low to the ground and attempted to move away along the wall.”
