I never knew Birds ate birds. Does your cat eat cats too?

Peregrine falcons eat almost exclusively other birds, and there very fond of pigeons too. But no, my cats don't eat other cats, but I'll bet a Bobcat or a Cougar would find my cats tasty.

BTW, I wasn't making fun of your statement, I was joining in (or so I thought) at the collective and sarcastic shock and horror that animals eat each other. :)

Birds eating birds is the whole idea behind Falconry. The hawk is trained to bring down the first large bird it sees after the hood comes off. That part is easy. The hard part is convincing the hawk to return after it kills. Usually takes several months of constant work to teach the hawk's 2 watt brain that the only food it will get is from the big smelly ape holding the leash...
