Homework assignment: Is the bird in this video a male or a female? The drongo perches above the flock, snatching insects that they disturb, and keeping an eye out for predators that might go unnoticed by its hunting flock-mates. And there is a video here. Anyway, below is the female, and here are two videos.

I’m not hunting!!! All YouTube videos give me hunting advice. I live in a pretty remote mountain town, tons of deer on my property. Wanted to give them a salt lick, is this legal? Is this ok? I’m from the city and like seeing deer! submitted by /u/NoobieShroomie [link] [comments]

PETA has launched a spoof site for the Vancouver Olympic Games over seal hunting. Seal hunting is just plain wrong. Warning, they have video of seal clubbing (and it starts automatically when you go to the site). I criticize PETA a lot, but in this case I think they are right on the money. I hate the seal slaughter.
