rolling into a ball puts most of the critical organs and arteries near the center so you'd have to bite through a lot more stuff to get to them. If you can just manage to cover up your face and your asshole 90% of predators won't know what to do with you.

Elephants will hold lifelong grudges, if a poacher slaughters and butchers an Elephants mother or family member that Elephant will grow up hating humans and will go out of their way to kill them, sometimes maliciously and slowly. The whole Elephant never forgets thing is very much true

These pieces of shit are leeches on our society.
I mean, really, how do third worlders think our countries achieved what we have?
None of them care even the slightest about uplifting themselves, their families, or their countries. Hand to mouth to the grave. Thats all they will ever amount to.

And they tell me I should work and sacrifice for these scumbags. I should give to charity so they can afford to have 9 kids.

FUCK
THAT

Instead of throwing expired food away, why won't big chain names donate them to shelters?
>>
>>5105901
Lawsuits.
>>
Expired food can be full of bacteria. Most of it's probably ok but yeah the quality would vary wildly.
Who is transporting the food? The shelter has to go pick it up or the store has to send a guy in a truck to drop it off?
Who preps all the food for the animals and makes sure they aren't about to eat an avocado or raisins? Now you need another shelter employee to sort and prep food for the animals.

This is now an amphibian digestive tract thread

Podcaster Joe Rogan has warned that mountain lions are running riot in certain states and eating household pets, demanding politicians do more to address the problem.

“One of the things they found out in San Francisco in the Bay Area was when they do shoot these mountain lions, they’ve done an analysis of their diet. It’s 50 percent dogs."

“They’re doing nothing to curb the population. And this is the thing is like people go, ‘Oh, it’s OK Let nature do its thing.’ No, it doesn’t do its thing. It kills your dog, OK?” he said.

He continued: “Fifty percent of their diet is eating people’s pets. So, they’re hunting people’s pets. That means you are, if you’re a dog lover, you’re allowing a monster to eat your dog because you think that’s the right thing to do and to be kind with nature."

“No, you have to hunt them. You have to get them the f*** away from you."

Rogan went on to share a story about Hanes being pursued by a mountain lion while out for an evening jog and commented: “That is the consequences of letting monsters live in your neighborhood."

The host concluded by suggesting that trophy hunting should be rebranded as “monster control” to attract broader support, signing off by saying: “I love animals, but I am on Team People.”

Retarded pseudoscience with no basis in reality.

Completely true. Pets serve no purpose whatsoever.

Because Humans are overpopulated, so we project onto animals the controls that we're no willing to impose upon ourselves.
>>
>deer overpopulation
>hog overpopulation
>stray domestic animal overpopulation
>rodent overpopulation
Didn’t a single pack of wolves stop deer overpopulation in Yellowstone, why is this retard obsessed with protecting mutts when the majority of time idiots just release their dog out while camping/jogging or just leave them in the backyard without any protective doghouse.

Seriously it’s like those idiots in coyote counties that keep complaining why their outdoor cats keep going missing.
>>5085472
Hogs are an interesting case, if they’re being hunted sometimes a member of their pack will just charge at the hunter while the rest escape, like a sacrifice to protect his family. But then again like a lot of anons here said you get rid of the predators and you’re stuck with a whole lot of animal populations that can’t be kept in check.

Any animal that harms dogs is based. We should all get pet mountain lions

That Caprisun you drank when you were six is still there, maybe a bit faded but still there. Lying in a growing landfill of single used plastic from millions of other people. Being able to persist for thousands of years.

I know humans have the "Out of sight, out of mind" mentality, but I getting a bit scared for the future.

Blaming environmental problems on the average joe is a psyop to make you feel guilty for things you are in no way responsible for.
Yes don't litter and dump chemicals and shit into the environment, but we aren't responsible for the giant pile of trash in the ocean or the whole in the ozone. No I won't feel guilty about eating steak while you are flying in a private jet every week to go to a meeting.
