I had a terrible thought. Most living things on this planet die by getting eaten. How horrible is that? Sure, domestic animals have a better chance, but it’s no guarantee. I think that is just awful. Being eaten is one of my biggest fears. That’s why I hate sharks so much. I would hate tigers as well, but I don’t live near one, so we are cool for now. If one moved in next door I would be singing a different tune. Although I shouldn’t let my defenses down just yet. There was a lion at Macy’s, and a bear walking around  the neighborhood last winter. A tiger is usually the next one to show up. There are easier prey around here than a human for a tiger. So many turkey and cows roaming around. I can’t imagine a tiger would want to eat a human. They are FILLED with preservatives. Wow! I am quick to throw the turkey and cow in front of the tiger to save myself. I am a horrible human. Better them than me.
