Fiodor Dostoïevski said:\" We often compare the cruelty of men to that of wild animals, it is an insult to the latter!\"
Pootin, Hamas, Daech, Hezbollah, Al-Qaïda, Taliban, Kim Jong-Un...are not Animals, they are DEVILS...Brilliant shot!👍👍👍

Amazing shot! You captured the true essence of this animal! I would never want to be anywhere close to be his prey!
