Watch: Bald eagle snaps at Donald Trump

Time magazine released footage Wednesday of Donald Trump and a bald eagle getting a little tense with each other during a photoshoot for the magazine.

The August shoot with photographer Martin Schoeller was for a Time Magazine cover story. Trump was a nominee for the magazine’s annual Person of the Year honors, which he lost to Democratic presidential candidate and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

During the shoot, the 27-year-old eagle Trump was posing with, appropriately named Uncle Sam, took at a nip at the billionaire mogul.

Trump currently sits at second place in the Washington Examiner‘s presidential power rankings.

He has been under fire since saying Monday that as president, he would ban Muslims from entering the United States.
