I use to work on a farm driving tractors. Hawks are not powerful enough to kill most of the things they go after, but they can pick them up way and drop them. They grab the thing, get up in the air, and look for something hard to drop them on. I’d be plowing along, 30 miles from anything, minding my own business and **FUCKING WHAM!!!** Damn rabbit or turtle or something falls out of the sky on my hood or roof.
I was visiting a friend with a Chihuahua and he just let it run loose in the yard (southeastern PA). I was like, “aren’t you afraid of hawks?” He’s like nah they’re not really around here.
5 min later I point up to the sky at a circling hawk about a quarter mile away. He like “come here Boomer!” (the dog’s name) 😂
This is also why my Chihuahuas can’t go out in the yard unsupervised
… and coyotes.

Boomer was fine.
How entitled.
