That's going to happen to you when Trump becomes president. He's going to feed anyone who looks like a foreigner to the alligators.

If I ever meet God, one of the questions I would ask him is why nature needs to be so brutal.

The clip in the OP is tough, but some hunter-prey dynamics are difficult to understand:

Few parasitoids are more bizarre or disturbing than the wasps of the genus Glyptapanteles, whose females inject their eggs into living caterpillars. Once inside, the larvae mature, feeding on the caterpillar’s body fluids before gnawing through its skin en masse and emerging into the light of day. And despite the trauma, not only does the caterpillar survive---initially at least---but the larvae proceed to mind-control it, turning their host into a bodyguard that protects them as they spin their cocoons and finish maturing. Then, finally, the caterpillar starves to death, but only after the tiny wasps emerge from their cocoons and fly away.

God...you couldn't work a better design than this?

No troll that looked pretty tasty. I bet she slept like a log that night.

We can do it. You can’t. Try to practice some restraint.
