was there a point in posting this?

might want to be more descriptive in a topic or subject line too.

Watch it and you'll see the point.

Watch where you're going in life! That's my "take away".

I've seen my cats take out birds that way - but to pull something out of the air that weighs as much as itself is pretty impressive. Cats are killing machines of perfection, no matter what the size.

That is awesome. Never tried deer hunting quite that way.

Not too good at a quick kill.

What I mean is, if a hunter slowly strangled an animal, many weeping rights groups would be in a frenzy.

Cool!

 

[crinkles]

looks like a setup to me. can you hear the tons of camera clicks afterwards?

Kind of sad watching the thing thrash.

I wonder if these big cats break a lot of bones taking flips and falls and crashes like that...

I suppose it's possible, but this one dragged its kill off.

They've been known to drag their kill up into the trees.

There's a pic of one with its kill in the tree here:
