Post and appreciate members of the raptor family Accipitridae:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accipitridae

This is a martial eagle (Polemaetus bellicosus) with its prey (Panthera leo). Martial eagles will stalk their prey for weeks in advance before going in for the kill:

While monitoring martial eagle nests, an interesting event was observed.

Off-topic post. No species of Accipitridae are visible.

Here's a Bateleur eagle (Terathopius ecaudatus) to return to the thread to its topic.

Your image is 100% right. Dogs aren't birds. Pigs aren't cats. Cows aren't people. It's just common sense. People who act to the contrary are typically mentally ill.

I like birds but they are the "just animal"est animal to ever be just an animal ever, other than fish and bugs. They're neat to watch and appreciate from a distance but in the end they just exist to continue the cycle of life and death and their value comes from being deeply embedded in the way nature works.

On the one hand I can not bring myself to pretend a singular bird has great value and is anything near a person. Even a pet parrot is "just a bird".
On the other, if someone killed enough sparrows, millions of humans would starve to death, and even the most meaningless looking bird species on earth is essential to keep some plant species in existence or prevent some little known parasite from becoming a plague.

Do bird of prey fags have the smallest dick size average of anybody on this board?

No, cat owners do. Objectively proven, in fact.

>>5052466
Europeans used to kill cats for fun until a century ago or so. You're acting like the last fifty years of effete suburban modernity are representative of human history rather than an aberration.

this board is so fucking dogshit now it breaks my heart.

It's would almost like some kind of bizarre plot to kill pet threads on /an/, except he never actually touches /kot/, so I think he only posts crazy anti-cat stuff to falseflag and claim there's "anti cat posting" when the norm for /an/ is "keep your cat inside" "cats are kind of smelly" "cats aren't very useful" "cats aren't smart"

I don't get it man

it's interesting how this thread stays up, but if you post that webm of a tiger killing a dog, you get 30 days animal abuse.
