Injured coyote pup gets a sweet pep talk from rescuer

Out of context, this is a cute video. Adorable animal, amusing banter. Everyone smiles. And then everything pops into a different perspective when I discover that hes chatting up an animal he’s already (accidentally) killed. Which pisses me off, now Im watching an adorable snuff film.

Maybe the standard should be, show the animal being re-released into the wild first, and then get into all the amusing back-story. Romanticizing abuse of wild animals, just encourages more abuse. Kinda like rape jokes that way.
