With legs built for speed and power, the Secretary bird hunts snakes by stomping them with a force of 195 Newtons, enough to kill in milliseconds.
Despite their raptor status, they hunt mostly on foot and can walk up to 30 km a day.

Why is the snake tied up?
Secretary bird doesn’t want to be fed. He wants to hunt.
I’ve had it with these motherfuckin snakes on this motherfuckin string.
He was begging her for it
This queen should be on the anti “don’t tread on me” flag.
“Please tread on me 🥴”
Human dinosaur.
Link to the Wikipedia article. It’s a featured article*, and there’s a subsection that goes over how the species has recently become endangered.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yeah, the IUCN listed it as vulnerable in 2016 and then endangered in 2020. “As a population, the secretarybird is mainly threatened by loss of habitat due to fragmentation by roads and development and overgrazing of grasslands by livestock.” So cars and animal agriculture – both largely unnecessary in modern society – fuck the planet at a micro- and a macroscopic scale. Not surprising, but tragic nonetheless.
brb, i gotta go cry
