Rant: My video shoot got photobombed by a llama at a petting zoo

I was filming a quick behind-the-scenes clip for my YouTube channel at a local petting zoo last Saturday. Right as I hit record, this llama named Pancake walked up and started chewing on my tripod leg, shaking the whole setup. The audio picked up her loud chewing sounds and I couldn't stop laughing long enough to reshoot. Now I add 'check for loose animals' to my pre-filming checklist, lol. Has anyone else had an animal ruin a shot before?

Nah, that audio sounds like a goldmine for a blooper reel honestly.

Oh man, that's way better than my story... I was filming a cooking thing at home and my cat jumped up and knocked over a bowl of flour right as I was explaining the recipe. Took me forever to clean up and I smelled like baked goods for days. Pancake the llama sounds like she's got some serious comedic timing though... that tripod chewing audio might be better than whatever you were filming anyway lol.
