Now that I have finally gotten over my turtles enough to laugh about it, I shall share this stoy with you all for your entertainment.
In California, we got two turtles. One for me, and one for my brother. As their shells were under 4 inches, we looked up when we got home, and found they were illegal turtles. Yay for illegal turtles.
Anyways, these turtles were 5 dollars each. When we get home, we find that the tank+supplies= about 60 dollars. Fail! So we hae these turtles for a while...my brother's gets huge and fat, while my turtle stays small and sad. (Maybe the evil turtle was stealing my turtles food?) Anyways, one day, after we had had these turtles for like 6 months, I get up to go to the bathroom..which is where the turtles were kept. As I sleeply walk into the bathroom, guess what I see? A turtle head staring at me. And his shell, with a skeleton attached. Also, turtle guts are disgusting and white, and on the other turtles mouth.
As I am two sleepy to cry about this yet, I sleeply walk into my mom's room, and had a convo like this:
"The turtle ate the other turtle"
"What?"
"My brother's turtle ate my turtle. Go look."
Of course, she was disgusted. We gave the turtle away to one of my brothers friends. I personally would've thrown it to the turtles at the zoo, hoping for it to get eaten, but my brother wouldn't allow that.
Now that I have, it's' time for you to share your cannibal stories. Kids, pets, anything! :D

Hamsters. Eat. Babies. *shudder*
Also, when we were keeping chickens in the yard out back, they tended to snack on smaller birds that flew in to steal their rice. They should've listened to Admiral Ackbar.
-

Hamsters eat each other, too.
-
I'm actually mildly disturbed that quinnr made a provision for cannibal kids in the thread title.
-
The mouse of a friend of mine ate
his its tail >_<

I eat aborted chickens!
(and hamsters are awesome)
-
...
The mouse ate your friend's tail?
-
No, its own tail :D. But I think it was a he-mouse.
-
I had a bunch of fish that bit off each other's fins etc. They were odd. Like a bunch of piscine 'Nam vet's.
-
Yeah, they'll tend to do that if they're cramped, agitated, or pirahnas.
-
I had two pet turtles as well. They lived happily together for 6 years. Then we decided they needed fresh air so we led them waltz around outside. Crow.
-
Saw a video once where a kid took his pet gerbil outside to show his mom. Hawk snatched it right out of his hands.
-
This thread is taking on a weird urban legends style feel.
And I totally saw a pair of shrikes divebombing a cat. Probably thought it was after their leehzards.

Shrikes have more respect for cats than they do for us. Stone cold jerks.
-
I'll take shrikes over crows any day.
*Sticks head out window* DAMNIT YA STUPID BLACK BIRDS! STOP FOLLOWING ME!!!
-
Oh, definitely. Sure, shrikes like hanging other birds off of thorns to keep, but crows are just mean-spirited.

Why do they always do that? =(
-
Psh, hamsters eating babies, that's small-time.
My friend brought a hamster home from school (It got pregnant and the school couldn't support it). The babies decided to strike first. He came home and they were all eating its guts, like something out of a zombie movie.
As for shrikes divebombing cats, a red-tailed hawk divebombed one of my cats and killed it. Got it right in the lung.

This sounds exactly like my story. It was like OH GOD THE TURTLE IS EATING THE LEFTOVER TURTLE SKIN!
Most of it happened while I was sleeping though. Also, bros turtle was MEAN. I could hold my turtle, but this one would attack you and try to bite your finger off.

I am dismayed. Your post has dismayed me.
... I dislike hawks now.

When I was a little kid I had a hamster named Silly.
He would bite your finger off, and he escaped EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.
We don't even know how. We'd wake up and there would be no hamster.

So, did your mom take out "How To Be A Surgeon In 20 Minutes Or Less (Yes, We Cover Hamster Incidents)" from the library and buy 20 pounds of string?
-
Maybe....
this was years ago...I hardly remember what the hamster looked like. :D
-
Fridge logic!
quinnr, how are you typing if you don't have any fingers?
-
Because I wouldn't let it bite my fingers off.

Whoa.
I had a pair of rats when I was a kid. One of them got knocked up and gave birth to 13 (!) babies. Thankfully she didn't eat any of them, but she did eat the placenta.
-
I used to work with those kinds of lizards. They were so cute, always looking up at you
-
I thought all mammals but humans eat the placenta (Tom Cruise is not human).
-
Yeah it's common, but it's the closest any of my pets got to cannibalism. I'd totally eat at least a little piece of a human placenta, though. I don't know if it would be better or worse if I knew who it was from.
-
Well, placenta soap is supposed to be good for the skin.
Still nasty, though.

Dude... I've seen it. It's... beyond nasty. Really. I thought I would before but when it's actually held in front of your face, the last thing you think about is eating...
As for kids, mine likes chickens. Live or dead.
So we got this whole chicken in the fridge. She: "what dat?"
Me: "That's a chicken"
She: "Tok tok?"
Me: "No, it's head is gone..."
She: "Ouch?"
Me: "No ouch, its dead"
She: "Eat now?"
Little kids have no mercy or empathy.

Siquo, your daughter is
awesome depraved. Have you been letting her play DF?
When I was like 10-11 ish, I would always catch zebra-tailed lizards in my backyard. I caught three of different sizes, and put them into a 5-gallon bucket that I converted into a terranium. I thought, "Hey, they'll be close and stuff, and then be friends and all."
I came back half an hour later. From what I could tell, the largest one swallowed the small one whole (I couldn't even find a skeleton) and then pulled the medium-sized one's intestines out. They were all over the bottom of the bucket. I mean like a good seven inches of lizard intestines, all over.

She's 1 year and 10 months old. I think the learning curve may be just out of reach for her ;)

meh, I had a friend who worked at a wildlife conservation place with a bunch of giant tortoises. They don't eat each other but they will occasionally rape each other to death. Not only that but they had a big tortoise statue made of concrete and it got humped into pieces. Don't fuck with tortoises.

It's what makes them the perfect killing machines. Now if you excuse me I have to go back to ducktaping machetees to toddlers.

Pun intended?

Well, they do bite your arms off.

We had this one cat when I was growing up, man that cat. When she was a young'un she chased her mom away biting and spitting. We would see the mom across the street, all forlorn, while Lizzie crouched on the fence staring at her.
(These were outdoor cats. Not feral, because they did come inside and hang with us and play nice. Which is what makes this psycho so strange.)
One time Lizzie sat on the fencepost watching crows fly by. The crows would come down into the yard for whatever they were eating, I have no clue, maybe they were just buzzing the cats for fun. Anyway, she leapt out from the fencepost, 7' off the ground, tackled a crow in midair and took it down to the ground. I ran over, being a kid and thinking it was awesome, and she just growled at me and carried the crow off in her jaws to the tall grass. The crow was still struggling, and the other crows were screaming at her. But they stayed away after that.
We would hear her outside in the alley getting her groove on with the neighbor cats, all yowling like crazy. My parents didn't have the money to fix her, so she kept getting pregnant. But she always ate her babies.
She got old and eldritch and terrible, and her eyes glowed like the coals of a crematorium. I guess her evil ways made her stronger. She took refuge in the crawlspace under the house. We would occasionally find a clump of feathers with some blood stuck to them, or part of a torn-open ribcage.
One day I witnessed her chase a possum out from under the car, down the alley, across the street, up a tree, and across to a fence before it leapt off the other side. There was just a steep ravine down there, so I guess it chose that over certain death at her claws.
She just walked away one day, never to be heard from again. Perhaps she haunts a crossroads, misleading travelers and stealing the souls of babies.
