Ever seen a starving dog eat a buzzard?

Drove past this poor fella eating a buzzard. Or a bald eagle, hard to tell. I was in the Great Falls, SC area. Pretty country, but worn down towns and abandoned houses. This dog was in the hills all on his own. Gotta admire the courage and fight despite seemingly being on death’s doorstep. This boxer was absolutely tearing into the bird.

Circle of life and such… one day the dog will probably be eaten by another buzzard, but he got his fight in while he still could. Nothing like nature to remind you of the cruelty of life. I took it as an omen of sorts.





Oddly enough, a few miles later down the road, I passed an enormously active gold mine. The area was “hills have eyes” type and I fully expected to see clowns in the woods.
