Was a sad day in my childhood when I learned that those traps did not catch mice by the tails like in the cartoons.
When I first got my house, I didn't realize that there was a difference between rat traps and mouse traps and I accidentally bought rat traps. Well, the problem was the trap would catch them too low on the spine and they wouldn't die instantly. One morning I come downstairs and the trap caught two mice at the same time. One killed, one still alive. Worst part, besides the one being alive and me needing to kill it, was that the live one had eaten off the face of the dead one as a snack (after the peanut was gone, I'm assuming).
So you expected the live one to let a perfectly dead mouse go to waste? They actually must eat or else their teeth start grows into their brain killing them. One of those things I found out when I bought my house.
His gif is correct. He might, he might not, but due to his Grizzly Adams style beard we may never know. No judgment aside from envy because any beard I attempt to grow just grows in white trashy.
