    Last winter, coyotes getting in our trash at work was kind of a thing.

    So we got these live traps from the gub'mint

    then we shot the coyotes.

    The gub'mint don't understand our ways.

    people who say kai-yote usually live in rural areas in my experience

    I say kai-yo-tee because that is how I remember hearing it when I was in elementary school and we learned about native american Coyote stories

    i've never seen a wolf in person
    i feel like that would be awesome

    i did see a dog that was half wolf though

    he was so pacific but god fucking jesus christ damn he was huge
    he had a head markedly larger than mine and was just like chillin on the floor being like 'i could eat your whole family with the same effort you use to take a dump but i'd rather just hang out here and get pet'

    I work in places where wolves have been re-introduced. They look like skinny dogs, but they got crazy eyes and twice the bite strength of a pit bull. Our elk and deer have gotten unused to predators, and the wolves will do things like run them into deep snow and then run along ripping out their throats and stomachs, hamstringing the front legs and watching the elk trip and fall - they're the only animal I've ever seen kill for the fuck of it, for fun and practice while they were full.

    They'll follow pregnant elk and cows when they walk off to give birth, and hit the newborn before it hits the ground, yank it right out of the mother, bite it through the throat, and then turn on her.

    Wolves are really fucked up sick individuals is what I'm saying here. And yes, I know that dudes have totally followed wolf packs around and totally petted them and stuff and all but wolves aren't that bad with people - they know that the skinny gorrilla brings the bangstick if you eat too many.

    No

    see you evolved to be an apex ominvore. You kill and eat. But when you hamstring something, watch it die, bite the nose off it and lap at it's blood while it thrashes around next to you, gleefully roll with your packmates over the nose like puppies fighting for a ball, and then run off without eating it

    you're a dick.

    but their instincts drive that behavior
    instincts that they evolved
    just like a cat playing with a mouse
    it seems like a dick thing to do, but it's just instinct to the cat
    wolves can't help it anymore than a fish can help swimming

    No, but see, wolves CAN help it. When they're actually hungry, they just chomp the fuckers in the neck and watch them fall over dead. They just decide to play sometimes. If it has survival value, it's probably in re-enforcing the instinct to run and not wheel and fight in their prey.

    but as for them "helping" it
    Rabid dogs can't help it
    Sociopathic humans can't help it
    Cancer cells can't help it
    Virii can't help it
    roaches can't help it

    but congress doesn't want to dump a load of any of these things in my back yard

    I'm just saying, making a value judgment about a wild animal's behavior is pretty stupid
    Male lions will often eat the young sired by a previous male when they take over a pride
    it's not a dick move, it's what lions do
    when a female Robin brings food to its young, that's not some miracle of compassion
    it's a bird following the instincts that the species has evolved to survive in their niche

    any attempt to moralize about their behavior is pointless and stupid

    No see

    They're dicks. You don't seem to be getting what dicks they are.

    No, I take your point, I do

    but explain the instinctual basis for spree-killing your prey

    I'm sayin'

    it's the instinct to be a dick.

    Also, I make value judgments about human behavior and we're not a whole lot different.

    just because you don't know what the advantage of the behavior is, that doesn't mean one doesn't exist
    besides, that's an overly simplified view of evolution
    the behavior may be simply a result of other behaviors that help them evolved
    these things don't evolve in isolation

    look at humans for example
    our brains evolved in a way that makes us very poor at understanding probabilities, which wasn't much of a problem 10,000 years ago but in this day and age our skewed "understanding" of probabilities hurts us much more than it helps us

    like I just said above, you can't isolate out specific behaviors as if they evolved in isolation from other traits
    there may be some benefit to the behavior (hones their hunting ability, or some other benefit we can't identify but exists nonetheless), or the behavior was a consequence that came along with some other trait
