Damn Mother Nature, You Crueler Than My Old Day Care: Man Frees Mouse, Immediately Snatched Up By Hawk

Note: Every screencap I tried to take sucked, you'll just have to spend the minute watching the video. Or not, I'm not here to tell you what to do, I'm here to report your activity to the boss.

This is a video of a guy releasing the mouse he managed to capture that had been plaguing his sleep for the past week. Unfortunately for Mickey, he barely gets 30-feet before being snatched up by a hawk. Mother Nature: she's a cold, cruel mistress. And an even colder lover. No lie, one time she and I were making out in the back of Father Time's station wagon and when I touched her boob my whole hand got frostbite. Then she started unbuttoning my pants so I faked an asthma attack and ran home.

Hit the jump for the video.

Thanks to my buddy Terry, who lives for shit like this because his life is really sad.

    Inb4 'at least the ATM cat killed it first'. A man visiting his daughter in Sweden recently made a withdrawal at a supermarket ATM and got a special surprise at the end: a mouse! Sadly, it was dead and not part of a "pet with every transaction" promo. *yelling at Wells Fargo... / Continue →

    Picture related: The Dew can eat cats too. A man in Illinois is suing Pepsi after claiming he found a dead mouse in a can of Mountain Dew. The man sent the mouse's remains to the company, who now claim it's impossible the mouse was in the can, because its remains were too int... / Continue →

    Hummingbirds -- easily one of my favorite kind of birds. Right up there with penguins, puffins, flamingos, toucans and owls. And while albino specimens (in this case, a ruby-throated hummer) aren't unheard of, it's rare to see such high quality photos of one taken in the wild... / Continue →

  • I guess gingers do have souls...

  • Greg

    No, they don't. He was doing this to promote ginger awareness and lure us into a false sense of security.

    What's the deal with these "animals getting killed" videos today? What's any of this got to do with "gadgets, gizmos and awesome"?

  • Paul Bleemstra

    Once they all go extinct we'll have to recreate them as robot animals, its good footage for the archive.

    nature is awesome

  • Bubbubsky

    Nature IS awesome, but it still makes me sad to see animals getting killed (even if it is perfectly natural and part of the environment).
    Animal abuse, on the other hand, makes me want to repeatedly jam pitchforks in the people who participate.

    Oh the circle of life...

    Sadly awesome. He (soldier) should at least get credit for feeding a hungry hawk...

  • crisimikiwiki

    CGI. I believed a similar video once.

    But that soldier is definitely not real.
