Found this reposted article on MSN which just turned out to be a bit on a BBC Earth video.
The video is pretty neat to check out either way. You get to see a Snowy family and watch them divebomb some overly curious hungry puppies with those chonky feet. Cute baby Snowies are there too. It's a quick 2 min clip, or skip to 58 seconds to get right to the action.
When it comes to protecting their young these wild animals sure step it up. Size and strength aren’t in the picture… just how much the mother is willing to fight.
Snowy owls are one of the most distinctive and recognizable species of birds, known for their distinctive white plumage and bright yellow eyes. These beautiful birds are found in the Arctic tundra and are one of the few species of birds that can tolerate the harsh and cold conditions up there.
Snowy owls are rather large birds, with wingspans that can reach up to five feet, and they are powerful hunters. They feed on a variety of prey, including small mammals, birds, and fish and are known for their fierce territorial instincts. Snowy owls will defend their nests and hunting grounds against perceived threats, making them formidable predators in their environment.
