Cartoonist Notes
Isn't it cute when dogs grab those little squeaky toys and chew on them? But where did that inclination to grab, chew and de-stuff the little toys come from? It's from killing small animals squeaking in pain with their last dying breaths. So now you may be glad your dog only maims inanimate toys instead of having, say, squirrel or duck guts strewn across your living room. Does this quite natural killing habit disturb you? It is probably because we as humans have detached ourselves from the natural world for the most part. If you are a medical professional you are probably one of the few people who get to see death up front and personal. Death used to be a bit more engaged to every day human lives. You wanted a chicken burrito? Go grab a chicken and cut the head off it. There was a respect and appreciation of what the natural world gave to us. It's not just a slab of yummy protein matter, you know it was a living thing.
On that happy note I was wondering what if the chew toys could talk about the abuse and slobber they sustain? What tales would they tell? I believe they would be mainly classified as horror stories.
