I killed a vulture

It wasn’t intentional. Several vultures flew right into the road and I hit one. Add this to the squirrel from 10 years ago (that still makes my stomach turn when I think about the sound and feeling of running over it) and I’m almost a serial animal killer.

I kept driving. In the rear view I saw the bird lying on the road, its giant black wingspan completely filling up one lane.

Vultures are nasty Birds by nature but they do serve a very critical purpose, sometimes birds make that mistake I hit a quail doing about 60 and did not realize that I had hit it until I parked at Walmart it was stuck in my grill so I gently removed it put it in a spare shopping cart and left it there and went and bought my groceries. Things happen in the world it doesn't mean that you're a bad person it just means that bird was unlucky. Some sprouts only grow shorter than others it's a fact of life that is actually why vultures were created amongst other animals to clean up the ones that don't

@KingofBones1 makes you a killer I guess. not in a judgy way. just a fact. I don’t have a problem with hunting and I’m not a vegetarian 🤷
