American eagle vs Canadian goose: How White House tried to portray US power over Canada, but original footage by a Goan photographer told another story

American eagle vs Canadian goose: A photograph of a bald eagle attacking a Canadian goose became an unexpected political symbol after the White House shared it to represent American dominance over Canada. However, the full footage revealed that the goose fought back and the bald eagle eventually retreated. The unexpected ending turned the intended political message into a social media meme. The photograph was captured by Goan immigrant and wildlife photographer Mervyn Sequeira during the natural wildlife encounter in Ontario, Canada.
