Angry ram attacks excavator

The angry New Zealand ram that has become an internet celebrity after charging a motorcyclist and knocking a drone out of the sky has been filmed taking on an excavator.

A video of Rambro charging into the six-ton digger was posted online on Sunday by YouTube user Buddhanz1, who is behind all the animal's other much-watched videos.

The clip shows the sheep sizing up the large piece of machinery and then ramming into it with its horns and causing a loud bang.

Buddhanz1 said he was working on one of his dirt bike tracks "when Rambro turned up to investigate".

"He didn't like it and started ramming the bucket," he said.

The territorial sheep made headlines around the world when it rammed a motorcyclist last year.
