Aw! Who’s so ferocious? You are! Yes, you are!

He looks cute, but when fully grown, he will hunt prey up to 5 times his size, like rabbits and hares. Beware the cute murderer!

It's a good thing I'm at least 6 times his full-grown size then.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

Shoot, I have some updated info for you. Turns out they can take down prey 10 times their size.

Run.

That cameraperson was sweating

Damn! Dude's a persistence hunter too! Like early humans hunting mammoths!

Also: those other rabbits are stone cold 😆

The other rabbits seem weirdly indifferent to what's going on.

Because they understand the stoat is killing to feed. One rabbit will last a stoat for days. That and Steve was really an asshole anyways. So the others have nothing to worry about until the stoat is hungry again.

Couldn't find a better nibbler gif, this is a travesty

We have a little mink that lives at our cottage. It’s this sweet little thing that bounds across the rocks along the water. And within 5 minutes it returns carrying massive fish, frogs, or mice - I don’t know how it hunts so fast, but it is clearly an effective killer

I read the comment above yours in your profile pic's voice before seeing it. Watching with little man for first time and he just met Nibbler!

Friend of mine has chickens, a stote dug a hole under the wall and went through a decent number of the flock before he was able to figure out and 'neutralize' it
