Don't know that game. Is it an RPG? Other than small simple games my genre is hack em up RPG such as Diablo 3, which I'm maxed out as to levels playing solo, And Middle Earth, Shadow of War which I am only in the early stages.

vampire survivor is sort of a rouglite rpg bullet hell game.

Went to this fish store an hour away from our home sense we were out there anyways... I didn't take many photos (just two). The freshwater tank has a severum that liked me... He followed me around... Not my parents, just me
I wanted to get him but I have no space for him...

One of my friends hunted one of the 3 local cougars that have been killing off the farm and wildlife in the area
Look at those claws

Oh... Maybe my dog is part cougar ...

But in all seriousness, it's sad to have to kill those guys but I do understand protecting the farm animals...

Sadly though, this is what caused the extinction of the Tasmanian Tiger. People kept killing them due to the Thylacines killing sheep. Over time there were less and less... By the time people started making a change it was too late and the last one died in captivity as far as I know...

Hopefully by now we have learned from our mistakes and we are not mass killing them over there... And maybe one day we will have better ways of preventing farm animal deaths other than killing these amazing predators.

There are restrictions with permits and rules regarding it. There is an overpopulation where I live

Awesome! Good to hear that
Still sad to see a beautiful animal such as a cougar die but it is understandable. Especially when there's an overpopulation killing domesticated animals

And wild animals, the deer disappeared in my area for 6+ months when they used to be everywhere

Yah... An imbalance in the predator to prey ratio can definitely cause issues... Especially when you have a higher number of predators and then the prey are outnumbered.
That can cause food shortages for the predators and also an extinction of certain prey.
Predators may fight more over their food and they may even become more aggressive with humans as food runs scarce.

Yesterday we went to this cool book store while out in town and I got two awesome books to help me out with some stuff and I've been reading them quite a bit!

Tonight we watched the movie Uncharted and it was pretty good but apparently physics doesn't exist in the movie .
But overall a fairly good story line and lots of action.

A kitty! Did he hunt it with hounds? That's about the only way to kill them, usually. They're usually too smart and too stealthy to hunt effectively any other way.

Rocky, the days of "go out and blow everything away until there are none left" are long past. Hunting quotas, especially for apex predator species, are meticulously controlled. Mountain lions are actually increasing in numbers across their range, and expanding back into areas where they were previously extirpated.

Yah I know... Still sad. No matter how many there are in the wild. Still a living being. The "trouble" they cause is just instinct. They don't mean any real harm although to us it is... Just wish there was a better way to balance it all out. You know, without killing anything.
And I'm all for hunting, it's fine... But idk... I've always wondered if there are better ways of handling the wildlife when it comes to situations like these.

I say this but we kill mosquitoes and flies like it's nothing at all .

I actually don’t know! I just saw the pics and he told me which of the three locals in our little area it was

While not radical I have to admit to being a little bit of a tree huger. I guess what bothers me is that we keep encroaching into their natural areas and then we kill them for being in the only area that they know to be. It was their land way before it was taken away by us.
