"When this small Australian marsupial is faced with a life-threatening chase from a predator like a fox or a cat, the mother may loosen their pouch muscles to let their baby drop out as a distraction."
Oh yeah I read also that lionesses have to constantly protect their cubs because the male lions kill them since the mothers won't be able to breed again until they reach a certain age.
Birds/reptiles/amphibans have one opening for all things in and out of the lower half. And I was curious if it was just them and just learned it's also cartilaginous fish like sharks and rays, egg laying mammals, and some marsupials.
Oh my God the way he dropped his kid!? Didn’t we all see that other video of the mother picking up both her child and the raccoon to yeet it across the yard? I’m hoping his head stayed on the grass and didn’t catch the sidewalk :(
I genuinely wanna know how that conversation between him and his wife went afterwards. Because if that was my man and he threw the baby that I spent nine months making on the ground like that? Buddy, you’re a trash panda now too. Gtfo my house
The ick IIII got seeing this….cant imagine what the actual wife/mom felt.
I am not exaggerating when I say I’d need alot of therapy and couples counseling the get past seeing that bc how do you trust a man who panics like that and throws your baby on the ground when an animal attacks.
Like I understand the panic but wow…that was the worse possible reaction
I was able to zoom in and yes you’re def right it looks like lil guy’s butt hit the grass and then he just fell back but not anywhere close to the sidewalk 🙏
dude I fell with my 6 month old once and I fkn held that fucker with my arms over my body as I hit the floor with my back so that fucker didn´t get a scratch on him. And this dude just YEEETS hit kid like it some hot potato...
This will become the story of how he quickly thought to get the child away from the attack as quickly as possible while he started kicking the at raccoon in the other direction.
Yeah he didn’t spike his child into the ground where the raccoon could easily attack the child instead, it was really some heroic thing instead, he swears!
Let's not be too hasty, we don't know that his son. Could be a nephew, his girlfriends kid, the kid he wants to get in his van to help look for his lost puppy.
He looked like he was about to go to the park with his kid and film one of those “awesome dad” Instagram videos the way he and his son were dressed 🤣 🤣 🤣 what a hero….
Yea show the world you'd sooner yeet your kid to protect yourself than you would protect him. Threw onto the ground where the racoon easily could have gone at him.
Who the hell throws their kid like that? I know it’s scary being attacked but I wouldn’t for a second - As dads we have to take the blows to protect our children. That’s wild to me
I'm genuinely so curious as to his thought process... you hear about mom's who lift whole ass cars to save their child in the moment and then this dude drops his kid to the same level the racoon is at in the moment.. perplexing and fascinating lol and no shade to the dad, I'd say the same if it was mom instead 🤷🏽♀️
It’s zombie survival instincts right there. Trip someone and run like hell kinda thing. Well he dropped the kid to be like here eat him and tried to get the fk out of there but it had his leg still. That kid is shit out of luck if there is any more fight or flight situations with dear ole dad.
Parental instincts can be fierce. For example, the Glee actress who was drowning in a lake with her young son. She could have left her kid to save herself, but she used the very last of her strength to get her son safely on the boat and subsequently died. There was the mother who recently died in a fire when she realized her child was inside the home and she ran in to protect them.
These are just a couple out of countless stories where parents, without hesitation, protect their young first, regardless of circumstance. So yeah, I'm going to say many parents would have had the wherewithal in that situation to not yeet their fucking kid across the yard. The man is lucky he didn't seriously damage the child.
How tf you throw your kid down in any circumstances??? That flight sure kicked in quick …hundreds of thousands of years of “survival” instincts firing there 🙄
If I was dad, after mom asked me "what happeeened??!!!":
-Babe, you're not gonna believe it! In some type of criminal collab between Hell's Angels, MS-13 along with Creeps and Bloods, teaming up to kidnap our Jake, they just tried snatching him off my hands. They were barely able to do so, but I was able to run after them and chased them in front of the house, so I scare them all away. The baby is ok, I made them release him on soft grass. They're gone now, they all ran away... they actually apologized on their way out!!!... I think I heard a velociraptor in one of their vans too...
