i don't think it would be healthy for the pelican to starve either. yes it's shocking cuz you see the strugle and cuz it almost feels like cannibalism, but it isn't, it is what it is. nature. if you don't like it, stick to your lolcats. and why would the camera man try to stop it? i don't run up to you while your inhaling cheeseburgers and pull them out of your mouth.
Actually you are wrong. You only think its disgusting because you are completely removed from nature. We are animals not super beings. Go work on a farm for a while or in a slaughterhouse and then maybe you wont be such a sensitive flower.
it'd be cooler if an albatross ate the pelican after, then an emu ate the albatross, then I walked up and ate the delicious quartet of fowl. hahahahaha
ps. was anyone else tempted to type "dancer" below where it asks if you are human?
This isn't normal pelican behavior. Raw fish is way more desirable than an unplucked and unbeaked struggling bird, so either fish are in short supply or the quality of the local stock has gone down to the point that this much more painful and feathery option is more appealing.
It's a pigeon. They get run over by cars, die from hitting windows, smog from cities, cats, to be short; pigeons die all the time. That's why there are so many of them. I saw a hawk eat a pigeon once and I just watched. I'm not going to stop a hungry bird, plus if a bird was acting like that there was probably something wrong with it.
Why would you film this?!
