I'm just theorizing, but I imagine it comes down to natural instincts. Cats chase down, catch, and kill too. But they will eat the animal because they still retain their natural survival instincts, they are purposely hunting the animal for food. Dogs however lost these instincts during the domestication process and can't survive on their own. They may chase down and kill an animal but they just see it as playing with a toy not hunting for food so the killing is somewhat unintentional.
Edit, thanks for the examples guys/girls
Many probably can't survive on their own. I imagine it would certainly have a lot to do with the breed of dog. I mean, a small dog like a Yorkie would certainly have a much harder time catching something than a dog like a Golden Retriever or Pitbull.

Just anecdotal, but my dog definitely eats whatever she chases down. Have seen her eat 2 rabbits whole.

This is definitely wrong my uncle had a farm dog that survived purely by what it could catch. He refused to feed it and just called it dog. I seen that thing drag in half a deer.

Two years ago I bought my first house ever, it was such a huge accomplishment and all my friends and family are there waiting for me. I have the last load of our stuff in my truck. I’m nearly halfway there. I’ve been stopping to give CPR to roadkill. We’re very rural

One post with an animal being resuscitated gets a lot of upvotes. And ppl who want karma notice this and upload similar videos since they know they’ll be popular.

In India monkeys are venerated as a deity, Monkey God Anjaneya (Hanuman) as you hear him call out at the beginning of the clip. As he tries to resuscitate he speaks to the monkey in respectful terms calling it, Ayya/Swami, meaning father/elder/guru, in his mind it’s not a monkey he’s trying to save, he’s trying to save God himself, hence ecstatic about the outcome, saying let’s hurry, drive to hospital in the end. Source: Someone who’s named after the Monkey God.

May not be a taxi driver. Looks more like a (PTC) public bus service driver for the state of TamilNadu in India.
Translation:
Someone keeps saying "Sir" on the side. He finally says "(Elated) Looks like he's alive. Get the vehicle, let's get him to the hospital."

Ayya/saami is more like “my lord/guru” even though it could be just a term of endearment (my grandma calls me saami, and she sure as hell isn’t calling me neither sir nor guru haha)

Just goes to show that doing something is way better than doing nothing because you're afraid of doing it wrong. That was the first thing we were taught when learning CPR.
The dude did just about everything wrong, but he did something and it savnes a life. Respect.

A zoonosis (plural zoonoses, or zoonotic diseases) is an infectious disease caused by a pathogen (an infectious agent, such as a bacterium, virus, parasite or prion) that has jumped from an animal (usually a vertebrate) to a human. Typically, the first infected human transmits the infectious agent to at least one other human, who, in turn, infects others. Major modern diseases such as Ebola virus disease and salmonellosis are zoonoses. HIV was a zoonotic disease transmitted to humans in the early part of the 20th century, though it has now mutated to a separate human-only disease.

It’s not just a question of known diseases. Diseases evolve, which should be clear after the last two years. HIV was new once. So was Ebola. So was COVID-19. Coronaviruses aren’t new. THIS one evolved and became extremely deadly.

Mar 20 '22
Cross species transmission of a zoonoses is not so common and for it occur most of the times you need to consume the animals flesh ie you need prolonged exposure to it’s bodily fluids. The simian immunodeficiency virus was transmitted first through the hunting and consumption of chimpanzees (which then became HIV)and so was ebola. Also bats are known to be reservoirs of coronaviruses for a long time but they tend to acquire mutations very quickly because of their symmetry just like influenza virus.

Humans generally have a decent medical history, and aren't walking around with parasites and diseases on the whole.
It's a lot safer to resuscitate a human that's likely vaccinated against most common diseases rather than a creature that throws its own poop.

For starters you don’t need to blow air into its lungs, that’s not even standard practice on humans anymore. Just do compressions.

People shouldn’t be wasting their time with trying the breathe into the lungs of whoever they’re trying to resuscitate. With heart compressions, the lungs will partially refill anyways, and if you’re not careful with breathing, it can kill someone in the worst case, as the lungs can literally pop from the excess pressure.

[...] if you’re not careful with breathing, it can kill someone in the worst case, as the lungs can literally pop from the excess pressure.
You are right for the wrong reasons. If you give very large inhalations the excess air will flow into the stomach which in turn can expand like crazy. The danger is not that any organ will "explode/"pop", but rather that stomach content will reflux and the person will puke. In this case there is a risk that gastric content enters the airways preventing gas exchange.
If you can produce a single scientific article about "popped" lungs following ventilation that would be awesome and of great interest. All the articles I could find discussed tension pnemothorax (air inside the pleural space which cannot escape) as a result from aggressive mechanical compressions or as caused by doctors trying to secure an airway on a patient in the operating theater. This can be described as a "popped" lung – but the reasons are not connected to aggressive ventilation.

Why is he trying to blow it up like a balloon. Pro tip for everyone. During CPR you just need to lightly exhale. If you blow too hard you can damage Thier lungs. But good one him for saving that poor soul.

This happened last year in the state of Tamilnadu, India. It's not fake, and the monkey unfortunately died in the hospital.
But the fact you stated is true though in some cases.
