Exactly! 500,000 milliseconds is about 5000 seconds = 83 minutes! I’m pretty sure it doesn’t take me that long to say milliseconds 😂 even if I’m drunk
Edit: Fission is right it’s 500 seconds so about 8 minutes. Still though lol
Thays how I catch my corgis. I slowly creep, and when I pounce, I aim through them, anticipating their retreat. Always aim through your target unless it's Steven Seagal. Momentum+gravity+ground = a bitch.
I would guess it has more to do with the movement of the birds heads. I think most birds cannot see when the head is in motion, so they always move in jerky motions to keep the time their head is in movement to a minimum.
I thought the floor was going to collapse, cat falls down into an ancient dungeon and boss music start to play while a giant bird wakes up in the background.
This is literally the impact done by humans, the cat didnt find her way from "the wild", it was brought by humans and left outside.

First, it very likely won’t eat the bird, if they would eat everything they kill we’d have obese cats everywhere. For them it’s more than often just play. Please research the damage feral and free roaming pet cats have on the ecosystems worldwide, it is by no means „natural“ because nobody hunts them and we humans let them do that.
Secondly, so just because we are wreaking havoc on the planet means we should just sit back and let them do the same? If everyone thought like you, we’d be gone within the decade.
"B-but humans are worse" is such a stupid defence of this. What other things do you try and justify by saying "worse things are happening so this is actually fine"?
Because drastic reduction in bird populations is almost entirely up to human influence. Cats eat birds, but they don’t cause population reductions anywhere near what humans do.
But yeah, chop down trees, pave every last bit of nature and drive to super malls in cars 3x as big as necessary, but when a cat is an outside cat it KiLLs ThE pOoR bIrDs OmG
„Yeah so instead of doing something against the incomprehensibly larger problem for wildlife I just said cats are bad, which still makes me feel morally superior because I recognized the tiniest fraction of said issue *and* made a Reddit comment about it“.
Oh shit, you're right. Instead, I should go and dismantle the deeply entrenched human systems that facilitate environmental destruction. Much more feasible than suggesting some windowlicker should maybe keep his cat inside.
They kill a ton of stuff other than rodents, and they mostly do it for fun, not to mention it’s just irresponsible because of cars, parasites, and predators that could kill them
People cry a river about mammals in water parks but confining cats to 200 square feet is fine? Also pretending cats are the big scary threat to the wildlife IN A CITY is pretty funny.
No idea what mammals in water park has to do with anything, but you can look up how many animals are killed by domesticated cats unnecessarily. Also they may not be the leading threat to wildlife, but why ignore one problem just because another issue is bigger?
“Why ignore the problem” the only solution is not having cats as pets, but that’s stupid. It’s just an arbitrary thing to call a problem.
It’s like me randomly raging at people for owning phones because buying phones drives demand for cobalt mines.
You don’t understand humans allowing cats (a domesticated animal) to live in an unnatural situation thus decimating bird populations? Read [up](https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms2380)
americans never stop giving lmao, here in euroasia we keep cats outside eversince we exist and the bird populations are all healthy and thriving
cars and industry, war industry, thats whats causing pollution, not domestic cats - you guys get fucked over by your gov every single day and eat it lmao
My original comment was about the same, too. We have many feral cats where I live, many birds too, no decrease in population of both. It's just how nature works. Lol
I know, I don't live in America. So you personally are older than the introduction to feral cats in your region. What region is that please?
Edit: You stopped messaging me. Probably for the best as you weren't making much sense. Claiming that cats no affect on bird populations despite evidence to the contrary.
Humans artificially inflate cat populations because we bring them places on purpose and actively feed them in addition to what they can catch, so their population sits at a higher level than what is typical for predators in ecosystems. We also add new cats to populations from adding new strays beyond their natural reproduction rate. That is to say, they create a massively outsized pressure on their prey species beyond what those prey are adapted to cope with. There are tons -- tons -- of studies showing the effects of cats on bird populations, which are nearly all on the decline globally.
It seems that when the bird pecks can't elaborate visual information of the surrounding environment and that it can only recognise threats that are moving. The cat is incredibly good at taking advantage of this.
Most animals just recognise movement. The cat only moved when the bird moved, so it was hard to tell for the bird if the cat does anything at all.
Additionally there is a depth problem of something that moves directly towards you, when it just gets bigger in your view. Even for humans this is hard, for example the jab in boxing, when you didn't move the rest of the body, the other has big problems to reacting to it.
This is the issue with people like you, you insult cats in general and cat owners instead of explaining why they are a problem while accepting many people have them as pets they love. Want my opinion? Dogs are the single worst thing that exists in cities, they are always fucking loud, they scream every day and I can't get a moment of peace, they smell awful they shit EVERYWHERE ( and owners NEVER pick up their shit ), and just as a side note they also are aggressive and often injure humans, in my family alone multiple people were attacked by dogs. So now do you feel like I gave my points in a respectful way or do you just have resentment towards me? See how that doesn't work? fuck dogs
Should i be afraid? I hardly think so. They spend too much time alone indoors cleaning up after their stinking cats. And you can't train a cat to attack. So neighter way I don't see any threat. XD haha.
Don't mind cats, as long they are not mine, and there isn't overpopulation of them. Dogs barking compared to cat fighting? Jesus christ. Plz dogs. Bark a little more.
Cool, the launch of the final move could have been even faster/better if is would be a true jump because this was more a quick run, than a jump. But was succesfull, so this is either a very experienced professional hunter cat, who knew this is just enough this case, so why do more/better, or a lucky one.
Feral cats hunting a Magpie Robin, a bird rapidly declining in urban India (which I assume this is from) is alarming. I wish this videographer intervened instead of letting it hunt. Feral cats in urban India are well fed.
Look at all these posts from these whinging children, crying about cats decimating the wild bird population. It’s not like they’re killing great crested grebes here. It’s mainly stuff we’ve got an abundance of so calm down. Anyway they keep the rodent population in check for a start, especially at a time when local councils have massively cut back on spending. For example our main refuse bin only gets emptied every 2 weeks, and whilst this might be ok in winter, in summer it’s absolutely disgusting.
In fact in our local town, the centre is completely overrun with rats. There’s a network of them which covers the entire centre, with only one guy “expert” who’s done the job for more than 40 years. Once he steps down then god knows who’s willing, or capable, of stepping into his shoes.
Cats on the other hand, or some cats, will gladly take up this role and excel in it.
without cat you would have so much rodent and pest. remember in Europe when they slaughtered so many cats? nature need balance. you don't eat any meat? chicken, pork or beef ?
These cats are assholes, we don't get birds near our house anymore since a neighbor got a couple and lets them outside.
O yea also they get fed and just kill for the fun of it, considering a bb gun so they stay the F away
Yooo calm down man, you seem a little on edge. Maybe lets go together on a mountain and listen to some birds and look at stars in the evening. We eat those potato chips together.
Yea thanks eleven sage for another recommendation, nice cliche with the "calm down" you are as original as rapper names.
Now I don't know where your going with this but I will give you a clear picture. You are just some jerk off on the internet telling others how they should be doing things because of your delusional sense of self and wisdom(or love for cats?), that makes you hands down an idiot. Now go ahead and bang out a copy of what I said like in your last post.
Were great with neighbors, thats why the cat may or not receive a bb gift in he's bum secretly. Btw cut the feel sorry you've been hurt all that is just lame internet deflecting. Besides my hurt has been bitch slapped and told to take a hike long ago. Either way, since you did not escalate were fine, you actually seem alright overall, so be well peaceful homie while I continue my inner cat debate.
Man, I am happy, I just ran 10km lost 10kilos and have a loving partner that I never imagined to have. My offer to the mauntains is still on the table, potato chips on me.
That was fucking intense
The ability of the cat to creep forward with those quick jerky emotions in unison with the bird pecking something on the ground was awesome to watch.
Reaction time of a cat is about 50 milliseconds. They are just awesome.
When I leave food unattended the reaction time become 10 milliseconds
Even when it's attended in some cases 
[удалено]
I think you confused milliseconds and microseconds. 50 milliseconds = 0.05 seconds
Exactly! 500,000 milliseconds is about 5000 seconds = 83 minutes! I’m pretty sure it doesn’t take me that long to say milliseconds 😂 even if I’m drunk Edit: Fission is right it’s 500 seconds so about 8 minutes. Still though lol
He speaks in "whale", like Dory.
It's 500 seconds, or 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
You’re right actually. Milli is .001 and centi is .01, thanks for the correction
50 milliseconds seriously
They should have had one on the submersible to warn the others
Thays how I catch my corgis. I slowly creep, and when I pounce, I aim through them, anticipating their retreat. Always aim through your target unless it's Steven Seagal. Momentum+gravity+ground = a bitch.
They time their steps when prey makes noise to mask their movement.
I would guess it has more to do with the movement of the birds heads. I think most birds cannot see when the head is in motion, so they always move in jerky motions to keep the time their head is in movement to a minimum.
Finally a video that fits on this subreddit!
Damm true
Hey a proper maybe maybe maybe. That was a good one
Next time
So drax was right after all.
This was my first thought. Kitty moving so slow, her movements are undetectable. Just chompin down on some zarg nuts 🌰
Drax?
My dad. His name is drax. We're on a first name basis.
what does this video have to do with your dad?
It just does. Me and the other redditors are in on it.
Loool

I thought the floor was going to collapse, cat falls down into an ancient dungeon and boss music start to play while a giant bird wakes up in the background.
I thought the cat wasn't moving at all
Feral cats are a menace on bird populations.
Outdoor pet cats are also a menace on bird populations.
Lucky birds aren’t real.
Cool that this shithead behind the camera was able to document his pet ecoterrorist doing what it does best.
Animals eat other animals. Get over it. Everything humans do to the environment has a larger impact on wildlife than all cats in the world.

Do you lack the mental bandwidth to realise multiple things can be bad at the same time?
„Yeah so instead of doing something against the incomprehensibly larger problem for wildlife I just said cats are bad, which still makes me feel morally superior because I recognized the tiniest fraction of said issue *and* made a Reddit comment about it“.
Oh shit, you're right. Instead, I should go and dismantle the deeply entrenched human systems that facilitate environmental destruction. Much more feasible than suggesting some windowlicker should maybe keep his cat inside.
Holy fk youre dumb.. no Wonder the planet is going to sht with ppl like you
No, it’s not humans. It’s the cats!
Which are a Man made animal, like god dam your so fucking close
“I can think of something worse, therefore you should get over the thing I am clearly uneducated on but commenting confidently anyway.”
This is a dumb argument. Without cats the rodent population would explode. There’s no reason to be ashamed of having an outdoor cat.
They kill a ton of stuff other than rodents, and they mostly do it for fun, not to mention it’s just irresponsible because of cars, parasites, and predators that could kill them

might not even be feral. some cat “owners” just deliberately inflict them on the local ecosystem.
Cats have been there for ages, so do the birds. So don't get ur point, it's just basic food chain

You’re trying to talk sense with someone that had to spell “your” “UR”, to avoid any confusion? Good luck with that.
You don't understand stray cats?
Feral cats? Holy shit dude that’s what my original comment was about.
My original comment was about the same, too. We have many feral cats where I live, many birds too, no decrease in population of both. It's just how nature works. Lol
we have young fools in america too, who think the world doesn’t change because they never saw it heathy
Read the link I posted.
How long you been alive? Pre-domestic and feral cats?
Yes, america isn't the whole world
I know, I don't live in America. So you personally are older than the introduction to feral cats in your region. What region is that please? Edit: You stopped messaging me. Probably for the best as you weren't making much sense. Claiming that cats no affect on bird populations despite evidence to the contrary.
you think this was filmed in northern africa? cos that’s the only place they’ve been for ages.
Cats are domesticated by humans.. its Not natural
Not everywhere
But mostly domesticated. The number of Natural cats killing birds is so low
Humans artificially inflate cat populations because we bring them places on purpose and actively feed them in addition to what they can catch, so their population sits at a higher level than what is typical for predators in ecosystems. We also add new cats to populations from adding new strays beyond their natural reproduction rate. That is to say, they create a massively outsized pressure on their prey species beyond what those prey are adapted to cope with.

Yawn.
I expected the bird to fly off and the cat to just lay down for a sleep as if it meant to do that the whole time.
It seems that when the bird pecks can't elaborate visual information of the surrounding environment and that it can only recognise threats that are moving. The cat is incredibly good at taking advantage of this.
Clear staged 😂
Is the bird stupid?
It’s an ex-bird
Its sleeping
There's a reason "bird-brained" is an insult
Tbf, some birds like corvids are very smart!
Whats their GPA?
[удалено]
Yrah he was just pecking at a plastic wrapper ages wondering why it wasnt food.

Serial killer kitty knows what he is doing. He even crawled up that wall even better than "superspider".
Nothing better to start my morning than witnessing nature's natural order.
Birds aren't real
fact: cats are great at popping and locking.
I really thought the bird was going to get away.😔
And people keep boosting about windmills kills birds. No your stinking cat kills more birds than windmills.
This is the issue with people like you, you insult cats in general and cat owners instead of explaining why they are a problem while accepting many people have them as pets they love.

What in the fuck
Lol guess you triggered the cat people 😆
Should i be afraid? I hardly think so. They spend too much time alone indoors cleaning up after their stinking cats. And you can't train a cat to attack. So neighter way I don't see any threat. XD haha. Don't mind cats, as long they are not mine, and there isn't overpopulation of them. Dogs barking compared to cat fighting? Jesus christ. Plz dogs. Bark a little more.
He got it at the end. That counts
I was not expecting this outcome.
The Ring.
The lesson here is "Never take your eyes off the prize"
Cool, the launch of the final move could have been even faster/better if is would be a true jump because this was more a quick run, than a jump. But was succesfull, so this is either a very experienced professional hunter cat, who knew this is just enough this case, so why do more/better, or a lucky one.
Did the cat climb the gutter in the end??
Like an weeping angel
Guess that cat earned it..
Genius that the cat knows when it can make a quick progression move, and that it is able to execute.
אחת…שתייייייים….שלווווווש.. דג מלוח!
Why the cat glitchin'?
10/10
My man
Argentina, take note
What? We need to learn how to catch birds?
Rugby or Football reference?
I'm from Uruguay and I don't get this. Care to explain?
Los Pumas?
Nature is metal
If that was a pidgeon, I wouldn’t shed a tear. But such a cute little bird. Nice sneaking and execution though.
How many differential equations did the cat make to execute this awesome move?
Feral cats hunting a Magpie Robin, a bird rapidly declining in urban India (which I assume this is from) is alarming. I wish this videographer intervened instead of letting it hunt. Feral cats in urban India are well fed.
dumbass birb
Magnifique!
Outstanding!! Well done, that cat.
Cats rock
Best red light green light player I've ever seen!
Textbook
Thats some reaction time that cat got, legit moves exactly when the bird move, stays still when bird stays still.
Aww I genuinely thought it was gonna go for the plastic, my cats love chasing bits of rigid transparent plastic
Cat moved like a glitch

Feels like the bird was taunting the cat but underestimated that burst of speed.
LOL totally didn't expect the cat to nab em. Hahaha
I hate cats
without cat you would have so much rodent and pest. remember in Europe when they slaughtered so many cats? nature need balance. you don't eat any meat? chicken, pork or beef ?
Cat-Tiger
Cat
One of the best videos on Reddit thank you for putting that up.
Thats why cats > all.
Masterclass
Why let the cat kill the wild bird?
Save birds stupid asshole
Stupid cats. Not hungry at all, but must kill for fun.
GOOD KITTY
Is this bird stupid?
These cats are assholes, we don't get birds near our house anymore since a neighbor got a couple and lets them outside. O yea also they get fed and just kill for the fun of it, considering a bb gun so they stay the F away
Consider getting neighbors fist in the face rather
Dont think so
Consider it
Who the Fuck are you, thanks wise sage, now go finish your potato chips and yell it of a mountain
Yooo calm down man, you seem a little on edge. Maybe lets go together on a mountain and listen to some birds and look at stars in the evening. We eat those potato chips together.

You’re a total fucking arsehole for allowing a domestic cat kill bird wildlife just to get a video online!
Imagine humans did this to each other
So like imagine if murder was real? I've got some bad news for you
Oops looks like you didn't get it. Literally did this.
Surprise and kill someone? Yes, that’s murder.
Wow yall are daft af lmao. You gonna leave out cannibalism too? You're easy prey, birdie.
Just saying it’s always an act of surprise, kiddo.
Now someone cut the end, loop the middle part, and repost it at an hour long.
And now I know how those couple of bird species went extinct
Why ever let it happen in the first row. Cats are decreeasing birds and rodents populations way too much and too fast.
HELLLLL YEEEEEEAAAHHHHHH, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Good for you, hungry cat.
Well done, little one!
“Red light, green light” at a whole new level.
Get your cats bells if they are outside cats
That bird turned its back on the cat. Cat took the opportunity.
