2. That was terrific

But why was somebody just standing there taking video of that dog in the rapids??

7. And why was that stick THROWN into that part of the river so the dog would chase it and

thus be put in danger? Actually, I thought it looked like a trained and staged trick--one that put the black dog into real danger.

8. This video shows where the dog would have ended up, if he hadn't been pulled out:

15. Yea, the dog "rescue" video is misleading. It doesn't look like the dog was in actual danger.

Still a fun video, though.

13. You're not suggesting....

that this is the animal kingdom's normal, everyday behavior? Nature is brutal, bloody, and harsh, and animals are killing each other at a rate that dwarfs these loving nature photos. These exceptions to that rule are cute, but do not demonstrate nature's default setting.

Humans, too, are capable of incredible instances of kindness and cooperation. We're not always tearing each other's throats out. Some would say that man's default setting is blood-thirsty carnage, but I think there are more instances of humans coexisting peacefully than not.

I'm positive you meant well posting this, and at times it seems like humans are always out to kill everything in their paths. In reality, it's not like that. Let's keep the behavior of nature's creatures and human beings in their proper perspective.

14. It's notable because it's not normal everyday behavior

16. About the same....

as humans being nice and caring for each other I guess. Take care.
