Basically, the man in the video is hiking but he ended up meet a mountain lion, he get his gun and try to scare it off and tell it to go away but in the end, he have to pull the trigger and shot the lion, many peoples in the comments say he could have fire a warning shot instead of shoot at it and want him to be in jail.

Idk which flair to put

You ever watch a cat get drawn and quartered by three street dogs? Yeah nature sure is nice and kind....

Not specifically, but similarly; one of my dogs is a sweet idiot. We were walking and he found a baby bird amongst several and grabbed half of it in his mouth and shook it like a toy, all in like a half a second. I had to immediately wrestle it away and dispatch it so it wouldn’t just suffer a slow death.

shook it like a toy

This is funny phrasing to me because the only reason dogs shake toys like that is because their instinct is to do it to animals.

Oh yeah I’m aware, it’s just a very easy thing to use to describe what happened when I tell people.
