When redditor JasonKetoAccount heard commotion in his backyard he decided to check his security cam footage to see if he could discern what happened.

Lo and behold, his camera caught a Red-tailed hawk swooping in to nab one of his chickens as it tried returning to its coop. However this time, his Muscovy duck, Felix, charged in to protect his chicken friend. Jason says the two have lived together for over three years.

Check out the security cam footage below of the dramatic rescue from certain doom. Felix is a bro!
