Kids chasing pigeons and ducks

[Aveno432]

Yet another day of seeing children chasing ducks with the parents doing fuck all to stop them. This was even worse in that the parents were both filming the two kids on their phones and obviously finding it funny and cute. Since when is terrifying animals funny? I see it regularly with pigeons and ducks and I'm so sick of it.

Aibu to think it's animal cruelty?

I went over to a family doing this and said just to let you know there’s a policeman over there and chasing animals has a fine. Just letting you know. They stopped.

No policeman and no idea if there’s a fine but …

😱😱😱20 years later, I would still be crying at the theft of that half-lobster! I'd be shouting, you think you're a Greater Blackback? No! You are the Least among Blackbacks!

Thank you for the understanding @SpaceRaccoon 💝

There's a big difference between animals doing it to each other. They usually do it for food, mating or survival instinct. Very different to an ill parented child doing it for shits and giggles.
