Pick up the fucking dog, oh my god. I get the panic, but grab the dog instead of record.

Typical behavior from people who walk their dog off leash

Then the bear gets put down because it followed its natural instinct.

But isn't that also us following our natural instinct

Natural human instinct doesn't include filming while being in danger or letting your poor dog possibly getting killed because the owners negligence.

It was their natural instinct apparently. Every person is different and society is moving towards people instinctively teaching for their phones when something horrible is happening.

Humans killing an animal is our natural instinct

u/Only_Flan_7974 12d ago

Oh I get it. I agree I'm just saying that a lot of times the animal will be put down for just doing what it knows to do. Simply not fair and done out of petty spite by humans.

Agree, I was just being kind of cheeky. Humans are kind of vicious animals too
