Look I know nature is harsh and this is life, but when you fucking mislead people into believing an animal is safe and fine only to show that, actually, no they are not!!! They got eaten!!! And you don't have any trigger warning (Like I assume that for the video they probably figure that kids watch the majority of the video and tune out when the Patreon backers are shown so they probably wanted to keep it kid friendly and like... actually no there really was no reason to show the fate of the duckling on video??? Like. Other than for shock value??? What the fuck???) and I'm just. NGL I feel pretty fucking betrayed.
Look I know they're a nature channel and death and animals eating other animals is a part of life but like. When they feed snakes they feed them already dead mice or rats. I'm mentally prepared for that.
I was NOT mentally prepared for a baby duckling they implied was doing well in their new home being shown to actually have been eaten alive. What even is this logic??? Like???
Anyway, if you're triggered by animal death, don't watch beyond the patreon credits of their newest video "Weird Things that Happen at Snake Discovery (Shenanigans Ep. 2)" because there is absolutely no trigger warning for that clip and like. It's far away and you don't see any blood or gruesome imagery, the duckling gets dragged under water by a bigger animal and that's the end of it, but. Yeah.
