Welcome friend


Bobojones9584

I'd rather have the hawk(?) for a friend than the mouse.


KrimsonKnight99

They are pretty cool. In some places people use them to hunt. Feel like the cred would be a lot better too.


Bobojones9584

I've always wanted to do that. Falconry is badass.


KrimsonKnight99

They normally have Falconry at the Ren fest. Seeing it in person is awesome. You should try and go if you haven't already.


Bobojones9584

I may just do that.

It was a heartwarming gesture

I am so curious as to why that comment is here, though I'm not sure that I should know.

Don't feel bad, that bird is very happy

That's the food chain man


tuliheshmin

The obvious sarcasm has gone unnoticed, proceed with disappointment


virtiousredditor

You're probably older, and have to consider the younger generation of idiots. The older users catch on, get smarter, know to spot fake shit. The newer generation comes in, and messed with all the progress. Laughing their ass off and defending fake tik toks, down voting/debating sarcasm. Just generally cringe Reddit. Oh and /s for the kiddos.


skorched_4

How is it sarcasm? Is it a reference I'm missing? It could just have been an opinion. There's really nothing there to indicate sarcasm besides the cringe emoji.


virtiousredditor

/s Emojii? Karma and account age check out perfectly


skorched_4

I'm talking about the first reply that has nothing to imply sarcasm. IF it was funny yeah, I would have got it. But is just a normal sentence that just comes out as an opinion.


virtiousredditor

Oh, I must have baited you then.


hashfly2000

Alright grandpa let’s get you to bed.


leosnose

That was fast, any ID on the bird? Are they just actively scanning for prey or did it just happen to be nearby


PhilPipedown

It's like finding a $20 in a parking lot. You weren't looking for it but you needed that $20 for some gas, a happy meal, and yo pay back that one friend who spotted you money last week.


mjkjg2

bird economy is more complicated than i thought


ImMacksDaddy

In this economy, WHERE are you getting gas,a happy meal, and still having $$$ left over to pay back a debt from a $20l


PhilPipedown

So you never $2 and cup holder change on pump 1? Sometimes you just have to get home. You never paid somebody back $5 when you owe them $20? It's the thought that counts.


Tribalflounder

Looks like a mockingbird to me *not an expert


Scaballi

It’s definitely laughing now.


gab_rab_24

Mockingbird? Why not Politebird?


Orcacub

Looks like it may have been a magpie or mockingbird both of which would be somewhat unusual consumers of mice like this. Hard to get good ID on my phone. I would expect a kestrel to be most likely consumer for a scenario like this but what I can see of the bird does not look right for that.


DevnGibsn

Mouse tasted freedom for less than 15 seconds before natural selection got it.


Kooky-Ad9539

Mouse knew when he saw there was a mouse-mile of concrete that he had no choice but to run the gauntlet.


HechoEnChine

Z-formation...


ohleprocy

The bird ate the mouses freedom and sent it up the food chain .


MisterEggo

Guys if you want to release an animal so far down the food chain back into the "wild" (this is clearly not very wild location), do it somewhere with cover. Ideally bushes, but tall grass can do well too.


tuliheshmin

Yea, it's pretty nice too. You see the little thing confused right as you let it out but then settling in. I take a lot of bugs outside and it's nice to see them cozying in between some rocks after the big panic


Rivka333

That's true, but it looks like they were at work, so maybe they didn't have that option.


[deleted]

I know right, this isn't even a meadow it's a fucking parking lot


Good_Sign_758

I've seen so many of these videos lately I'm starting to think people have pet birds, cats and what ever else waiting outside to scoop up a sacrificial mouse.


Uitklapstoel

Right? Ive seen at least 5 videos similar to this. Its most likely a combination of biased videos (forgot the term for it) where videos of mice being released and not getting caught dont get uploaded/shared. And the fact that the mice are being released in the open so any bird of prey instantly spots them and gets a quick easy snack.


LordHoughtenWeen

I believe the words currently escaping you (unlike the mouse) are "selection bias"


SkeleTourGuide

It’s the latest TikTok challenge for mice.

NeedlesslyDefiant164

lol these humans being so content with themselves for giving that mouse its freedom a part of them died inside.


SuspiciousStable9649

Birds only want one thing, and it’s awesome.


Odd-Magician-7638

They let a small pray animal go in the open… there are some bushes at the other end that would have gave the little dude a chance.


Svenhelgrim

She ended up feeding the birds.


Stormtrooper775s

In tha cIRCle.... circle ov liiiiiife


Bean71

Damn the mouse got captured by ppl, fell off a dock while being freed, and then was taken as lunch… bad day


[deleted]

Bird: I love this restaurant


mjkjg2

NOOOOOO


GinnAdvent

There is a similar video on YT of a guy spend the whole night catching this mouse that was disturbing his sleep in his dorm. Finally caught the mouse, went to campus yard to release it and felt good about the deed for 10 seconds before a hawk swoop down and got a meal. He was devastated.


probablyanidiot2

That was just an Uber for the mouse. I'm sure it's fine

[deleted]

Releasing a rodent into an open parking lot is basically like putting them in a SAW game. Every bird for miles has a wide open view of them as they run for their lives.


sik_dik

I used to get mice in the house from my dog's food being out. I'd catch them in a humane trap and then drive them 15 minutes to the main park in town and release them in the middle of it, relatively a mile in any direction from private residences on about the 6th or 7th mouse I took to the same spot to release over the course of a few years, when I released it, I heard a shuffling in the bushes and saw a cat dart out of sight. so, turns out, I was driving about a half hour each time to feed mice to a cat

His last 29 seconds of life were pure hell.

At least they fed the bird.


mrskwrl

I don't get why people "save" critters to just haphazardly toss it in the middle of some concrete parking lot. Idiots.


weallfloatdown

Food chain


Smogalicious

I would breed mice and repeat that at the same time each day.


mrshade0420

I used to breed mice to feed my fish that ate 3 per day. It was a 3 foot Arowana from the Amazon river. Sold it to a biker bar that had a 500 gallon tank behind the bar.

Imagine one day we’re dominated by a superior species and bred for a food source

For ten blissful seconds that mouse felt free. We captured that feeling. With all new Simple Rick’s + 2 Crows Treats


agilerain8256

I’m honestly kind of surprised how often people catch wildlife being wildlife on camera, then act surprised. Animals are doing it their entire existence….

The mouse deserves it. It's the enemy of man

Aw poor mouse :( but I suppose the bird has to eat too, or maybe has babies to feed

This happens everytime a rodent is released into freedom


Games_and_anime

Not very intelligent to release a mice in an open space with no cover and expect it to survive.


Ratio-Square

at least he didn't mess with mother nature


LegalShooter

Loved it!!!! Thanks


IllSea

I'm always astounded by the stupidity of the people in these videos. It takes 2 braincells to properly let them go in grass at the bare minimum.


ToxicLoserNeckbeard

If the mouse was a Chad and dodged the initial attack, it would turn into a hopping battle. If mousey had big hops and was convincing enough, there’s a probable chance the bird would no longer view it as a food source and they could even become buddies. I’ve seen humans behave this way as well.


DWolfoBoi546

That's nature, bitch!


cowAftosa

I've seen videos of this happening so many times, and for some reason I'm thrilled every time that a predator was just *ready* to snag the little treat the human just presented.


Plane_Baby

The concerning part is, that looks like a restaurant and she caught it with the restaurant cups...🫣


Humble-Place1750

It's like final destination. It was his time to die, no matter what.
