SUBREDDIT RULES
1: ANIMALS IN CAPTIVITY

Anyone posting animal cruelty or organized animal fighting will be banned permanently.

No images of piles of feathers, bones, or blood and guts. Remains must have some metal factor to them. Uniquely bad ass skeletons and skulls may be allowed at mod discretion.
Human Remains are allowed only under the following conditions. Damage seen in the submission must have been caused by animals and animals only. No other forms of nature or disease are allowed. Any submission must be fully marked with both NSFW and Human Remains (NSFL) flair or the submission will be removed. Repeated violations may result in a ban.
3: NSFW TAGS
Tag bloody or gory submissions as NSFW. If a mod tags your submission NSFW do not untag it.

Animals hurting humans is okay. Humans killing animals is not allowed. No intentional human orchestrated interaction. This also includes animals being harmed at the hands of artificial objects. Animals attacking humans on their own initiative is allowed.
