It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity! Or remorse or fear and it absolutely will not stop!... ever... until you are dead!

Yeah, that's humans for you

The receiver is backwards and there are two ejection ports.

The two ports are for faster shooting and the backwards reciever is for faster bluetooth connections.

Here is an article that shows some contra points to the theorie, in case you want to have a look at that too.

The evidence for it is rather shallow, realy.

It's pretty clear that persistent hunting is one of those myths concocted by someone to justify a world view that humans are "more special" than animals and has no more scientific basis than the "science" coming out of the Disney movies in the 1950s about nature.
