Légende
Battle between a hawk and weasel, 1844. ...'the weasel saw his danger, and instantly seized the hawk by the head. A severe struggle here ensued, but at last the hawk succeeded in disengaging himself, and got away. Nothing daunted, however, he returned to the conflict as game as at the first, the struggle then recommenced, and very soon after the weasel was seen dragging the dead hawk towards the hedge, when Mr. Compton shot the weasel, and found the hawk, as before described, quite dead, and his head bitten entirely through in several places'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
