How a moose dies "naturally".

[subdermal]

Next time somebody says hunting is "cruel"....

Attacked by wolves, according to the photographer.

yeah, nature isn't pretty and bambi or bulwinkle don't close their eyes and go peacefully in their sleep.

 

[LuckyLuc82]

Damn poachers!!

 

[Juster]

Part of the senseless annual slaughter of our innocent wildlife by that awful Mother Nature woman.

Mother nature is the cruelest mother of all... Its all about survival of the fittest.
If youre weak, you dont make it... very simple.

Don't pay attention to them and maybe they will just go away.....

I'd love to find something like that. Sit by it every morning and night until I got one of the buggers.

One year as a kid, (in the middle of a prolonged cold spell), I was really shocked to see a deer drag its self by its front legs while a coyote ate away at its crippled hindquarters. Went back and got a gun to put the deer out of its misery.

Coyote was smart though, the meat was easier to eat "fresh" than frozen. Mother Nature is efficient but has no concept of what cruelty is.

From what I remember hearing somewhere(FWIW), most animals that are typicaly a prey, like moose, bovines, antelope block pain when they have a predator on their heel. Adrenaline will keep them going despite deadly wounds. It only starts hurting later. Nothing different from humans, but probably better. We often hear that taking a bullet doesn't hurt immediatly, at least that's what an Afganistan vet told me.

Looks like it jumped from a helicopter. They should ban those!

 

[steamy teabag]

Mother nature isn't cruel, she's indifferent.

 

[John Y Cannuck]

Nobody going to mention zombie moose hunters?
