I'm so fuckin' gutless.
I took the kids to the beach, and we came across a gull that clearly had something wrong with it. It didn't move or fly when we approached it. I got right up to him, and could see he was choking or gagging on something stuck in his throat. He was too weak to even try to walk away from us, we got right up to him. He was covered in bugs.
I knew he was going to die. I knew he was suffering. I knew that I probably should find a big rock or stick and smack him on the head to end his suffering. And I couldn't frigging do it.Could not kill it, poor thing. Now I am thinking about him dying on that beach, maybe taking hours or days to expire, and wondering if I should drive back there with a shovel, and maybe in the dark I could do it.
I know it's just a bird, but I am seeing it standing there in my mind, and it's bothering me something fierce.
You all know I love animals, this would have killed me and haunted me.
I'm so sorry.
