Man, birds come off as docile, tame creatures but Reddit has really exposed them for the psychopaths they really are. Pecking deformed babies, stealing nests and murdering babies, stealing money in return for food…they don’t give a fuck.
I'm a backyard bird enthusiast and yes birds are really hard-core. You can definitely see how the dinosaurs must have been. They are also surprisingly emotional depending on the species. I think that's been my biggest surprise from dealing with them over the years.
I once watched my flock of hens form a single file line and take turns grabbing chunks of meat off a coyote that my brother had shot.
They will also ruthlessly fight over worms, grasshoppers, if you find a juicy bug you run
Birds are just new dinosaurs, they’ve been around for longer than just about anything that’s living today (dude birds are old af)… I would think that after several millennia that anyone would completely stop giving a fuck. Besides, if you want your kind to survive, especially back in the day before humans started fuckin shit up, you HAD to be a complete psychopath. You basically had to be a murderhobo.
That’s why the perceived cruelty of birds doesn’t surprise my anymore. That flamingo pecking it’s chick to death because it has a dark mark on its wing just doesn’t give any fucks, it can make more. Birds are scary and dope.
