Also even if that class could own guns you'd still be screwed considering gun tech at this time isn't as advanced or reliable as it is down the road either since it was putting loose powder and also you had one shot along with the gun failing is something to think about which forces you to either use the gun as a club or hope you have some bayonet on top of the gun.

To answer Sara's question: Yes, animals do know to go for the head and neck in order to kill their prey.

Yeah, big cats attack the front of the neck to crush the windpipe, and most likely slice open an artery or two in the progress. Never look away, or run away from any of the big cats. If they arent 100% sure they can kill you without themselves becoming injured, they most likely wont attack.

[@AskMia411]

Okay I’m more west than Midwestern, but we use both? I looked it up just to check, and while it’s uncommon, the two can be used to describe similar bodies of water. Creek is an “in between stream that carries water to a river”, and when crick is used as a separate word, it’s basically a extremely small creek, small enough that it warrants another word. Maybe it’s because we get lots of winter snow runoff that results in temporary, extremely narrow streams? I’d honestly never heard that crick was just another way of pronouncing creek until your comment, so you can imagine my confusion 😅

"Do animals go for the neck?" Yes. they do. In animals that chase down their prey, usually they go for the legs first so the animal can't escape, but animals that stalk their prey usually go straight for the neck. It's the most unprotected part of the body, and the most vulnerable.

[@imahumanlarva3248]

My two dogs don't get along and fight whenever me and my mom accidentally have them together. They always aim for the throat. They know the throat is the most vulnerable/accessible place

[@lemmetalkaboutthis]

@@nothobbesmufc949 idk, it feels like they think animals straight up don't know to go for the throat at all - I'm not surprised lions can think ahead like that, they'd know you have to immobilize a target first if the throat is hard to reach When wolves get into fights, especially males, their female partners will duck under their chins to protect the males' throats, too I was mostly frustrated bc so many humans seem to think that the same animals that kill to survive don't know how to kill on purpose or efficiently, as if the animals didn't know what they were doing or how to do it

[@chiaratraber5885]

Felines generally go for the throat, not all but most I think because the general body plan is specifically good for ambushing prey, surprising prey and doing as much damage as possible before the prey can defend itself. I also heard that the lynx will choose not to go for livestock if it has the choice because it has learned that humans don't take too kindly to that

Fun but unnecessary fact: some animals actually do know to go for the throat. I’m not sure about wolves or coyotes, but wild cats generally do go for the throat first, i.e. cheetahs, tigers, jaguars.
