SQUIRREL VS DINOSAUR
A feisty squirrel takes on a fearsome foe when he decides to tackle a T-REX. After sniffing out the plastic enemy, he climbs onto the dinosaur's back in order to claim victory. The epic bout was captured by illustrator Max Ellis, 51, after he noticed the fight taking place in the back garden of his home in Teddington. ‘This is evolution at work,’ says Max.
