As you may or may not know, I’m a huge fan of Animal Planet, The Discovery Channel and a host of other shows involving nature and animals. There’s a lot you can learn from these shows and to tell you the truth, the food chain and how animals lower on the food chain then humans get their food is astonishing to me.
That so called “civilized” societies get their food from a grocery store and not the ever shrinking wilderness is a stark contrast to how things were just a couple hundred years ago. It’s nice to see that the Animal Kingdom is still ever reliant on nature for it’s food.
Wild Animals do it old school. They hunt. You don’t see a Bear going into 7-11 and buying a Salmon Slurpee or a Lion going into the Supermarket and roaring at the butcher for 10 pounds of Zebra fillets to throw on his grill. Not happening. I ofter wonder, if our food supply suddenly was interrupted for an extended period of time how many people would die from just not knowing how the hell to acquire and cook food. I’m not talking about foraging for canned food in an abandoned mini-mart, I’m talking about catching fish, hunting wild animals and planting/tending to your own fruits and vegetables like our ancestors. A real life “Lost” scenario minus the parachuted food, hatches and electricity. Do you think you would survive?
Anyway, that’s what goes on in my head when I’m not thinking about blow jobs or pizza or getting a blow job while eating pizza. Here’s some animals that actually have to work for their food.
