A couple-friend of ours from Atlanta had their dog killed by a coyote. They let the dog out unsupervised and after a while went to look for him and he was gone.
Same thing happened here to a friend of my dad's several years ago, but she actually watched it happen. It was a tiny dog. If she had a German Shepard the coyote would have run away.
My sister-in-law got a dog that you can hold in one hand. They have to go outside with it every time because hawks will take it.
Kevin Smith saved his small dog from an owl once using an inflatable pool toy.
Pets can be as loved as a child, and I don't wish such a tragic end to anyone's best friend. However, there's no malice or evil in these animals. They're trying to eat to feed themselves and their family. They don't have any concept of what your pet means to you.
Should we punish birds when they eat a worm? Bats when they eat mosquitos? Lions when they eat a gazelle? Humans when they eat a burger? And for you scumbag vegans: Humans when they eat a vegetable?
It's all living things eating other living things. That's how it works. Sometimes it's brutal and emotionally devastating, but that's life.
But yeah, let's do something about the coyotes because they killed a pet for food, but not do anything about all these humans killing each other over colors or territory or drugs or whatever.
A scuba diver drowned recently, and his family was all over my scuba facebook groups calling for federal regulation of scuba diving. People suck.
No, you're wrong. Look at all the federal regulations and laws involved with driving cars and NOBODY dies in cars anymore...
