Driving from Cedarville, Calif on Hwy 299 to I-5 in 1985 in Ford truck, towing horses in large trailer. Eagle swooped down & picked up LARGE LIVE RATTLESNAKE from road & started to fly away. SLOWLY.....
When the eagle cleared the truck, it wasn’t 4 feet from the windshield. All I can still see was the size of that RATTLESNAKE & how I was worried that the whole mess might smash thru the windshield. I HATE SNAKES. Had too many encounters with them while riding.

Sadly some 'grade A morons' know nothing of the food chain!

In order to have safe zones, they need to have rights. To get rights for them, liberals will need our money. A new tax is coming soon.

The American Goldfinch is a vegetarian but I dont think it would be a better national symbol.

Why couldn’t the eagles eat some seitan or tofu or tempeh?Because kitteh tastes better than tempeh.
To: Slyfox
Hmmm?
I guess making the case an eagle opened the sliding glass door is a bit of a stretch, huh?

There's an open field behind the house that gets marshy after it rains. Birds come from miles around to feast on half-drowned insects.
All these birds walking around on the ground naturally draws the neighborhood cats. They hide in the grass, trying to sneak up on the feeding birds.
The birds don't like being stalked by the cats, so when they see a cat lurking around, they swoop in behind and peck him on the head when he's not looking. This startles and infuriates the cat, and ruins his hunt.
The birds are much too small to actually hurt the cats, and the cats are house cats who rarely if ever catch a bird. Nobody gets hurt, but it is fun to watch.

We occasionally get cats show up on the ranch and if they fight with our barn cats they get shot and tossed out for whatever critter wants to eat them. If they don’t fight with our barn cats they get shot and tossed out for whatever critter wants to eat them.
Memo to cat owners: Don’t let your cat out of the house if you live in Pittsburgh or northwestern Wyoming.

What about ALF, he loved cats!
I don’t recall ever seeing him at dinner time?
