The forgotten death


Tippet Pipit, the happy black Labrador Retriever.

Most people seem to get more upset by animal deaths than fellow humans. You yell "that shark ate some guy!" and people go "huh...wha?" You yell "that shark ate my dog!" and you've got a panic on your hands at the ASPCA and The Humane Society.

I fast forward past that scene, would rather have seen his owner eaten.

You would've REALLY hated the movie "LAKE PLACID" when Betty White blindfolded a Cow, swatted him on the ass and he walked out in the water to a 30 foot saltwater crocodile grabbing him and flipping his entire body in a 360 and munching him in like 2 bites??

They never made it clear one way or the other.

For the record though: In real life swimming dogs do attract sharks. Apparently their swimming patter stimulates them like a distressed fish.
