Nature is BRUTAL! Cooper's Hawk Eats a Chipmunk

Witness the raw and unfiltered reality of nature as a Cooper's Hawk devours a chipmunk. This intense encounter highlights the brutal nature of survival in the animal kingdom. I couldn't believe I stumbled upon this scene while out photographing the whitetail rut. You just never know what you'll find!

I don’t think animals possess or understand brutality. That is a human emotion. This is what nature does. It just IS! Nice capture and great timing!

[@matthewgehly]

I agree 100%. You could probably argue that humans are more "brutal". We raise animals just to slaughter them for our consumption. People are saddened by a scene like the one in this video, but don't realize that we do the same exact thing. Thanks for the great observation! :)

Wow amazing to see this. I have watched Cooper’s hawk prey on song birds but not a chipmunk.
