Nature can be cruel
 

At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a
certain justice manifested within that cruelty..

The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered
the "apex predator", can still fall victim to implemented 'team work'
strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and "survival
of the pack mentality" bred into the canines.

See the remarkable photograph at the below link, courtesy of Nature
Magazine.

Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from
breathing, while another dog has a hold on the tail to keep it from
thrashing. The third dog attacks the soft underbelly of the gator.

Not for the squeamish..

That goes completely beyond any resemblance of good taste. You should
be ashamed to post that link. I know nature can be cruel, but is just
sick.

Now if that doesn't get more people to click on the link, nothing will. ;)
