Former U.K. prime minister Boris Johnson was attacked by an ostrich at a Texas safari park.
Carrie Johnson, the Tory politician’s wife, posted a video the incident on Instagram Sunday. It shows Johnson, 60, in the driver’s seat of a car with the window down as an ostrich approaches, intrigued by
the food in Johnson’s hand.
One of the couple’s children leans toward the window and laughs as the bird dismisses the food and darts its head and neck inside the car to bite Johnson.

“Too funny not to share,” Carrie Johnson captioned the clip.
On her Instagram story, other clips include Johnson holding another child near the car window as a deer examines the car and the ostrich video with the caption “It was all going so well until…” with a crying laughing emoji.
