I pulled over and walked back a few feet, and found it laying on the pavement. I picked it up, and noted the speed at which it&#8217;s heart was beating, and several feathers crumpled at the tips. <\/p>\n<p>I have real issues with causing suffering to animals. Their lives are short enough and filled with enough bullshit that they don&#8217;t deserve any additional danger from humans. I will not kill anything I won&#8217;t eat, and I won&#8217;t take a shot I don&#8217;t KNOW is an instant kill. Oh, I don&#8217;t rescue spiders or bees or wasps, and I&#8217;m not too fond of varmints, but songbirds and nongame animals? Don&#8217;t let me catch you treating one cruelly. This, actually, is the prime reason I&#8217;m not overfond of cats. When you;ve seen a cat play with and slowly kill an animal solely for its&#8217; own amusement, it sours you on the deal. yeah, I know it&#8217;s their nature yadda yadda, but I still dislike it. <\/p>\n<p>I smoothed the swallow&#8217;s feathers and tried to bend back the tips that had been bent. It suddenly seemed to come around and flew off, startling me somewhat. I was pleased it wasn&#8217;t dead anmd hoped it didn&#8217;t have any fatal internal injuries. I hopped back in the vulva and drove on. Stupid yuppie cars. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>pushes it&#8217;s way through the air in bull\/china shop manner.
