CLAW
The animal kingdom is a tyranny of carnage and might. Every nature walk is a tour through an abattoir. Underfoot and all around us, there reigns an open violence. For some creatures caught in this thresher of teeth and claws, it is horror; for others, it’s a crime. And for others still, it’s lunch.
Out there is a field of blood. We’ll meet you there.
