Me and my brother had a trio of gerbils. One of them died from depression. He was in the same cage as the others, he was treated with love like the others, he just stopped eating and died.
The hamster just sitting there doesn’t surprise me. The thing that I question is whether they picked him up at all to try and feed him or see if he was okay. Because surely if they picked him up then he would’ve perked up and moved around? Or at least moved and ate a bit?
Fuck me, y’all believe anything. Ever seen a trapped rodent?! Think it just sat there and said, “Oh well. This is my life now.”?

The other two didn’t give a single fuck.
Some of the smartest people on earth see the bad side and no course correction for humanity, so they end it.
Aren’t there whole studies on how they’ll do exactly that?
