All tag results for 'dying'

They're dying off the coast of Texas, not like on the plains or something.

That'd be weird.

This is just sad and true though. Over 120 dolphins have died off the coast of Texas.

It's so unusual that a federal agency has actually launched an investigation

This is so sad.

Normally, in the Cape Cod area, about 100 dolphins beach themselves every year.

But now for some mysterious reason, over 100 dolphins have beached themselves in just the past 3 weeks.

Rescuers are working tirelessly to try and save all the dolphins but sadly, they're fighting a losing battle.

A whistleblower at Shin Nippon Biomedical Laboratories (SNBL), an animal testing conglomerate, got in touch with PETA and brought them undercover video of the horrible cruelty and mistreatment of monkeys at the testing lab.

The monkeys live almost their entire lives in fear and pain until they are killed through the course of experiments.

Check out the above video taken from inside the lab of the poor test monkeys.

It is comforting to know that at least someone in the lab had the heart to risk their job for the suffering animals.

HA!

Oh… you got meeee… I'm… dying… (silence).

END SCENE.

This puppy gives an Oscar worthy performance and totes sells a fatal neck bite.

Best part is the other dog doesn't even react. LOLZ!!

This must be a regular thing for the pup!

The end is near…er…ing?

More birds have fallen and fish have flipped over to their death.

More than a hundred dead birds were found alongside a California highway, similar to the birds found in Arkansas, while a thousand fish have been found dead on Chicago's lakefront.

The madness!

Wildlife experts noted that the most unusual (and possibly the creepiest) occurrence was not the fish dying, but the sight of Canada geese and mallards eating the dead fish, which are NOT ordinarily part of their diet.

And in more not-new-news, officials have no idea WHY this is happening.

Lots of ideas and explanations have been put forth, but none have been proven.

We're anxiously waiting to hear some kind of scientific explanation for all this mayhem.

Maybe all these animals were just part of a crazy animal kingdom cult and they all drank the Kool-Aid.

It's the end of the world as we know it…and we feel fine.

More dead bird news.

This time, thousands of turtle doves have fallen from the sky in Italy leaving the streets and trees covered in dead or dying birds.

Jinkies! There's a clue attached to these birds.

Most of the dead doves had some kind of a blue stain on their beaks.

This news is ALARMING to say the least and while it isn't cause for mass hysteria (yet), we're stocking up our emergency supplies in our fall out shelter anyway.

Just in case. Just for fun mostly.

Experts suggest that the blue stains found in mouths of the dead and dying birds in Italy could be the result of poisoning or possibly signs of hypoxia.

Both the local forest service and the WWF in Faenza have sent some of the dead birds for testing, but the results likely won't be available for at least a week.

We sincerely hope the testing reveals some kind of LOGICAL explanation for all these bird deaths.

Like aliens. Or something cool like that.
