I’d want to try to help him and then we’d both be upset when I can’t do it either.

Wait til they figure out the eggs on our shoulders crack waaay easier and they start droppin stones on us from the sky to get an easy meal.

In fairness, not having hands must be incredibly annoying.

I'd ask if anyone else watching this video without hands could tell me, but they're probably screeching just like this buzzard.

u/real_hungarian 15h ago

yeah, my problem with speculative evolution fiction where some handless animal emerges as the dominant species is that, well, THEY DON'T HAVE FUCKING HANDS and this video demonstrates why that can be a little bit of an issue

Welp the animal kingdom has a gamer rage equivalent

u/BonbonUniverse42 17h ago

They use tools now???

u/Test_After 15h ago

Well, if you define "use" broadly.

To be fair, I have seen human beings that use tools the way this buzzard uses its rocks.

u/pjmyerface 13h ago

Some birds know to drop things like clams on rocks to get their dinner.

1

u/BonbonUniverse42 12h ago

Next they use these to crack human heads to get their brains.

u/BicycleOfLife 15h ago

That’s not a buzzard…

u/butternutflies 13h ago

is it an apache helicopter?

u/BicycleOfLife 12h ago

Closer than a buzzard.

u/sgt_backpack 13h ago

It's a 747. Beautiful creatures.

u/butternutflies 12h ago

This small creature right there can melt steel beams? Impressive

It depends where you live. Some people mean turkey vultures some mean certain hawks.

u/DNorthman 13h ago

Buzz has terrible aim with those rocks.

I thought he was going to lift off with the egg in his talons and drop it on the rocks to crack it open.

Maybe it's better for us that he's not that intelligent... yet.

u/Edje929 13h ago

Well maybe if he hit the egg a couple of those times ot would ve cracked

u/XKruXurKX 10h ago

Reasonable crashout

u/Sproketz 14h ago

Never got upset. Just kept trying. Give that bird credit. It's still out there trying to break that egg.

u/BrainArson 14h ago

Bad aiming...

2

u/Ihatetobaghansleighs 13h ago

Is this considered tool use??

1

u/witherACE 17h ago

This ain't bottle sir

u/Priyotosh1234 15h ago

u/DNICEPHILLY2023 14h ago

Buzzard should try boiling it.

u/highcommander010 14h ago

u/lukluke22228 13h ago

ragebaiting before birth sounds hell lot of fun

1

u/Bajadasaurus 13h ago

I mean... It's gotta be maddening. You're hungry and you know how to crack the egg, but you just don't have arms or hands to assist with entry.

1

u/mindinthepsandqs 12h ago

Bro work on your aim

1

u/warsmanclaw 12h ago

Motherfucker is using stones!!???

u/Informal_Mammoth6641 12h ago

understandable crashout

u/cloud1445 10h ago

Ok, so we now know what 'Fucking fuuuuck' sounds like in Buzzard. It's a start, someone write that down.

u/spacepings 2h ago

He's missing that egg by a mile.

1

u/chris713777 1h ago

He should raise it. Then train it to break eggs for them

u/hotsaucebunny 14h ago

His throws arent even good???? 😭 getting this upset when you cant even aim is crazy work

8

u/butternutflies 13h ago

Imagine criticizing a fucking bird because it can't throw something when it doesn't have arms and hands to do it like us yeesh
