On Friday, a group of firefighters were battling back flames in Ipueiras, Brazil, when a large animal popped out of the grass.
The firefighters started to follow the anteater when he suddenly stopped and stood up on his hind legs.
He spread his arms wide as if to surrender — a position sometimes referred to as the “anteater’s hug.”
“He was scared and I think he felt threatened because he stopped, stood up and made a movement as if to make himself bigger so that we were afraid of him,” Lieutenant Dutra, a member of the Ceará Military Fire Department, told The Dodo.
