One of my rat traps was tripped last week and dragged some ways away. I figured I had fucked up the animal and it crawled off to die. Today I found a three-legged rat dead in a trap. You'd think it would have learned a lesson after chewing off its own leg, but no...

One of its siblings was caught by the leg too and survived a headshot from a pellet gun. It was still twitching after two shots to the skull. I was trying to be humane but they're just too tough.

I hate them, but I respect them.
