Holy moly. I saw the top pic last week. Never noticed the rabbit in the other claw. What an amazing shot!

That's why I said that that poor bunny wasn't having a good day.

Had something similar with an old Jack Russell, her and the fox grabbed a bunny almost at the same time and at one stage they were side by side with the bunny bent around the base of a big old blackberry bush. Surprisingly she eventually let go and let the fox take the rabbit.

https://www.audubon.org/magazine/summer-2019/the-2019-audubon-photography-awards-winners

Species: Bald Eagle
Location: San Juan Island National Historical Park, Friday Harbor, Washington
Camera: Canon EOS-1D X Mark II with Canon EF 600mm f/4 IS lens; 1/320 second at f/11; ISO 1600

Story Behind the Shot: I had spent the day photographing foxes and was panning with this kit running with its prey when an unmistakable cry made me look up. I just knew the eagle racing our way was after the fox’s rabbit. I expected to have only a split second to capture the theft in one explosive frame; instead the eagle snagged the fox and rabbit, carrying both 20 feet off the ground. After eight seconds it dropped the fox, seemingly unharmed, and flew away with its stolen dinner.

Fox got away okay.
Not so good for the bunny..

Google "you want to eat 2000 of something".

EVERY SINGLE RESULT on the first page (out of nearly 4,000) attributes that joke to Mitch Hedburg.

I didn't look any further.

Want to re-evaluate your accusation of him having stolen it from DO'B?

I think they're talking about Darragh O'Brien, a FF TD for the Dublin Fingal constituency since 2016.

Are you sure they're not talking about the sports broadcaster? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daire_O'Brien

And it's a selfie - you can see the culprit's reflection in the glass. Burn the witch.

It's silver that doesn't reflect vampires it being a noble metal and all that.

But we've been using aluminium for ages.

Don't go to the Nope thread, Star Lord, trust me.

Capt'n, I've half a mind of banning you for that nailclipper-tooth-icecream pic, damn you! I've an electric shock going up my face because of that picture!
