(FOX 11) - Photos of a goose attacking a 5-year-old girl in Houston are going viral. Though they look terrifying for the young girl, the photos apparently had her older sister laughing.

Stevie Gidden posted the photos on Twitter writing 'Summer got attacked by a duck today and the pictures our neighbor got of it happening make me laugh so hard.'

The photos have already been re-tweeted over 45,000 times and liked another 60,000.

Summer's sister sent a later tweet clarifying that someone did help her.

A local news station reported that the little girl had a few scratches, but was otherwise fine.

She may be afraid of geese from now on however.
