giant tortoise, a species previously thought to be a strict herbivore, has been filmed chasing and eating a baby bird in a “horrifying and amazing” attack, with researchers stating it was the first documented example of deliberate hunting in the wild by the species.
ottleyoconnor For some reason this made me think about your tortoise and wonder what his real motives are when he chases that ball! 😮
Are all tortoises carnivores or was this one acting out of tern?
You're 'horrified' at a female tortoise acting naturally & killing a baby bird, but not at thousands of mothers ending the lives of their own unborn babies! What kind of crazy morality or pseudo compassion is this?
Tortoise: hey human, it’s not I don’t eat them, I just can’t catch them😭
Strangely satisfying 😳
Tastes like chicken.
Sometimes a salad just won’t do.
What is 'horrifying' about something completely natural?
Vegetarians are all the same... Take your eye off them for a second and the Hypocrites are scoffing meat !!!😉
Nobody saw that tortoise coming for like 50 minutes
