So my appetite for grilled sea otter - not so misguided after all, eh?

Maybe we should stop eating grilled penguin, yes?

Nope, we still call it lent. I have to hear about it every year.

don't think that's what he meant.

Kris, in the non-sexual manner and not it being distorted by a sexual pervert, that is an interesting fact. Reading it in a sexual sense, that is absolutely false because in Medieval times sex was only for procreation, the only "right" way to have sexual relations was in the missionary position and on certain days of the week, certain times during the day (nighttime? Nope. daytime? Nope. Anytime? pretty much nope) and sex was not supposed to be enjoyable. Having fun while mating with your wife? NOPE! You are a big sinner and need to repent!

I have this chart somewhere that talks about when you can have sex in the medieval times... Need to find it, take a pic, and post it on here. It's hilarious.

And for Leo:

This one keeps on cracking me up at odd times during the day. I simply cannot get past it

There are a couple of species for which even regular sex means raping the female (squirrels IIRC) or killing the male (spiders, mantises).

Cats are torturing their prey to death
Male lions kill baby lions when they take over a pack
A lot of insects paralyze their prey and lay an egg on it, so the hatched larva eats the victim alive
Several animals are cannibalistic

Humanizing the issue (i.e. applying our morals on matters of "nature") is like missing the point. I might be disturbed by otters raping seals, but I'm not drawing any consequences nor will I act in any way. As long as humans aren't involved, animals can do among themselves what they want, no matter how terrible it may appear.

I think my posting isn't a weird thing at all, so I might have missed the point of this thread... and *catch 22* meet the spirit of this forum at the same time.

According to textbooks, cats have been studied carefully and it was found that they are using decisive tactics on their prey, rather than toying with them.

But to add to the list, mother rats will often eat an entire nest of their own young for unknown reasons.

Yes, I exaggerated a bit. They don't do it to inflict pain for some reason, but to practice hunting.

Besides, after the male lion has killed the kittens, the females don't bear a grudge for long. They will voluntarily mate with him a few days later. I don't think it works that well with humans.

Mice and rats will eat their babies if there is serious danger or not enough food to support them, because they can't really relocate the babies without putting themselves in serious danger of being eaten. So they eat the babies to reclaim the calories so they can try again in a safer or more bountiful location.

Also, domestic cats can self-abort a litter of kittens if under extreme stress or find a more suitable mate. They don't have a miscarriage, they actually reabsorb the kittens through the womb.

Raping Baby Seals to Death you say?

Must have be some Otter Guy.

You made me lose all faith in humanity. We deserve extinction.
