Have any of you ever seen three coyotes take down a small deer and half eat it and than kill it? Or a calf that had it's hind legs half eaten off and still alive?
To even attempt to equate 3 coyotes taking down a "small" deer to anything a humane does to an animal -- is completely ridiculous. (so coyotes got themselves some stocked grociery stores eh?)
Coyotes do what they do to survive...............
We WISH we could be as skilled a hunter as a coyote, cougar, or rattle snake....etc.
Comparing coyotes (or any other predator for that matter) with "man" is just another pot-shot attempt to hold up the argument that "hey far worse stuff happens in the wild so who cares of we ______."
The old "if they can do it we can too, right?"
On one hand you'll argue that man has domain over the kingdom to do what he pleases (man's superiority).... Then in the same breath you'll
equate our (man's) actions - and further more the REASON for those actions - with the actions performed by animals in the wild which are done instinctually, and for survival (man's equality with the wild kingdom).
(now's when you break out your argument of how killer whales play volley ball with half-eaten seals)
Cake and eat it too??????????
Flawed, and ignorant.
The difference is, well.... if I need to explain it to you it's not worth the burnt calories smackin' the keyboard.
On a lighter note - I got my first 25 at trap club tonight - so that's why when I got home late, my lady said "Lucy.... you got some s'plainin' to do!!!".
