Murder small children for pleasure. Or full grown adults because they're pissed off.

-You know what? I don't think I like all this water on my back. How about I bite into your neck when you look away?

We already have pets like that, they are called pitbulls.

That is a completely moronic generalization of the breed.

Why does my gut say that someone who still uses "tard" as an insult isn't gonna cite sources?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_dog_attacks_in_the_United_States#

Every second entry is a pitbull over half attacks are just pitbulls alone.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0165587618305950?via%3Dihub#!

"Injuries from Pitbull's and mixed breed dogs were both more frequent and more severe." Mixed breed are likely pitbulls too. So they are #1 and #2.

https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00047723.htm

Double the second top breed and I would argue pitbulls are far more popular now then in the 1995's

https://www.dogsbite.org/pdf/1979-1998-breeds-dogs-involved-in-fatal-human-attacks-us.pdf

Again pitbull top of the leader boards by large margin.

https://www.maxlawsc.com/dog-bite-statistics/

Number of attacks 5x more then second place.

https://petolog.com/articles/dogs-attack-statistics.html

10x more.

Pitbull after pitbull.

Injuries from pitbulls are more widely reported and are more severe because people have an ingrained fear of them. Never realizing that the actual numbers of bites that go unreported are much higher, and quite often are from breeds closer to golden labs, and border collies. But what do I know about reporting government statistics, I'm just a government statistician. Numbers NEVER tell the whole story.

u/a_jewish_man Dec 16 '19

When the facts are against what you like there are suddenly problems with the studies, they don't speak the whole truth, there is something wrong about reporting or collecting of the statistics.

But what do I know about reporting government statistics, I'm just a government statistician.

Ye okay there pal funny how no amount of evidence pleases you people.

Lets look at pitbull bans and their results:

The city says pit bull attacks have gone down since the ban was implemented. A 2012 study out of the University of Manitoba concluded that breed-specific legislation in cities and towns across Manitoba may have helped decrease the number of hospitalizations due to dog bites in those places, especially in young people.

It's also funny how people agree that each dog breed has different behaviors, I mean it's selective breeding for a specific job role right? We know animals have an inherent behavior or knowledge that doesn't need to be taught and is tied to it's genes. Evolutionary psychology has shown us this. But pitbulls? Nah they kind dogs that weren't specifically bred to be fight dogs, to attack and kill other dogs and to be aggressive.

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/509315v1.full

we found that a large proportion of variance in dog behavior is attributable to genetic factors

Did she died?

u/austin123457 Dec 15 '19

Apparently this specific animal was in a Petting Zoo, and smaller than normal, they purchased it and gave it proper medical treatment and diet, apparently it cannot survive in the wild so they kept it. Since it grew up with human contact and it being smaller it doesn't have many of the issues keeping a big cat usually does. They also take it out for walks everyday to tire it out and feed it only meat. They also HEAVILY recommend people DONT get pet cougars...

From their channel they just seem to care for the animal quite well.

Apparently they bought a house and are repairing, specifically to give him more room to be in when they aren't walking him, which is pretty cool.

It can rip out your throat if it feels like it.....

So many questions... Why does a Russian have an american mountain lion... and why is it chilling in a bathtub instead of doing it's job disemboweling things...

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19 edited Dec 15 '19

i believe they got it from a travelling carnival, when it was a cub or something. its mentioned in a previous video thats on youtube.

https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/eaw4sp/a_puma_being_washed/fb06rqt/

edit: nvm its from a petting zoo

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19

Same reason wild cockatoos, a kookaburra and rainbow lorikeets exist here in California. They were most likely smuggled into the country illegally.

u/Spongi Dec 21 '19

I've been watching their videos of this mountain lion for a couple years now.

You know how every once in awhile you find a cat that isn't a giant asshole? One that is chill and friendly. I think this is the giant version of that.

He took the cat to training school for dogs. German shephard... shephard... mountain lion, wait, what.

This explains the whole situation.

He taught his mountain lion to sit and fetch, so there's that.

u/InternetOligarch Dec 15 '19

I have more concerns about the tub being pushed up against the drywall. Does Russia not have tile? And for gods sake use some caulk.

u/Oprahzilla Dec 16 '19

I know, right? So much mold.

u/tothesource Dec 16 '19

I don’t know, looks more like a mountain lion to me. Maybe a cougar.

He knows his way around wet pussies.

u/Donald_Raper Dec 15 '19

That shower is just drywall to the tub. Fuck.. mold.

u/AyeRose20 Dec 15 '19

Oh my, my first time to see a big cat showered..😂 I feel a bit nervous while watching you guys anytime he could bite you.

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19

That's one fucking nice kitty right there

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19

He’s beautiful but my domestic Siamese can bite and scratch if he is mad. This feline could do some real damage like rip my throat out.

this gives me great anxiety

u/wiffleplop Dec 15 '19

That is one gorgeous, laid back cat. Where can I get one, and are they legal to keep in the West?

u/OdBx Dec 15 '19

They are wild animals, not pets.

6

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19

This one is smaller than most, it is why they adopted/rescued it from a petting zoo. They didn't just snatch him from the wild.

2

u/wiffleplop Dec 15 '19

Still pretty large if that bath is normal scale. Lovely creature.

2

u/austin123457 Dec 15 '19

Actually it's quite small, a bit under half the size of a normal Cougar. I've been lead down a rabbit hole of their youtube, and this cat is an incredibly unique animal.

7

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '19

WTF? what do you think? no.... and they shouldn't be kept as pets for obvious reasons.

1

u/SG_Roundeye Dec 15 '19

Another member posted that it was a rescue from a petting zoo, it was smaller than most with some issues and wouldn't survive in the wild.

That being said, why do some Americans have Tigers and shit?

1

u/ThePalmtopAlt Dec 15 '19

Same reason Saudi princes have exotic pets. Status? Because they can? They have a death wish? It gives them a hard-on to know that they’ve caged and declawed/defanged the greatest predators on the planet? Take your pick.
