Yes, when birds fly into a windmill, it’s just “nature” taking its course.

Nature is brutal as hell. SUV Yuppies have their worlds framed by Walt Disney from childhood on.
I am always puzzled by people who decry zoos. (Properly cared for) zoo animals have basically won the lottery. No, they don’t have the romantic wild vistas to graze or hunt on.
I saw a leopard or a cheetah trying to hunt for her cubs, her jaw was so broken that it was freely and visibly swinging beneath her face. Starving to death with your children is what nature does. Dying of a hellishly-painful dental abscess. Being eaten alive.
Humanity wants to be merciful and that’s good, but it has lost it’s perspective.

Gods plan, strong animals feed on weak animals. Liberal policy is exactly the reverse of God's plan. Under socialists, the weak feed on the strong and count on us not being "nasty and mean spirited" enough to let those parasites starve.

“Playing God in Yellowstone” (by Alston Chase) recounts the fed’s first creative flirtation with that region. Generally interesting, if nauseating, history. Things haven’t changed much; everything the feds touch turns to excement.

Liberal policy is exactly the reverse of God's plan. I'm always looking to add to my Unified Theory of Liberalism. This is good. :-)

The cruelty one sees in nature and life is Satan's plan.
The greed of socialism, robbing the productive to bribe the unproductive (the greedy unproductive and idle have greater power in number than the productive) is an extension of that plan.

The Buffalo Calf was obviously a Democrat!
However, being a buffalo without a vote, wildlife experts want their wildlife to be self-sufficient instead of putting them on welfare!

One only needs to live on a farm with livestock to understand that these animals aren't like pets, domesticated like our cows on the farm or wild, like the buffaloes in Yellowstone.
My wife and I raise Angus beef cattle and we have experienced calves die in our arms trying to save them. It is inexplicable why some calves do fine and some don't. But once the mother rejects them, it is almost certain they will die.
It is nature's way.

So still it was not smart to pick it up.It was a futile effort, but clearly, the baby bison was a Dead Calf walking. They simply hastened a death that probably would have been much more cruel anyway.

I lived through middle school and HS in the deep woods of extreme northern California. Nature does not F around.

It may not have had the chance to vote during its short life, but will probably be voting Democrat from now on.

The coyotes have to eat too.

Yes I did and I'm well aware of the cruelties of nature..........I have my own opinion of this which I stated and this topic ain't worth arguing about.
