The creator starts by delivering a somber eulogy at what appears to be a human funeral, only to reveal he is mourning four of his chickens that were killed by a predator. He shows the crime scene, a makeshift graveyard, and cracks an egg in tribute before revealing trail cam footage of the culprit, a bobcat. The video concludes with the creator abruptly dressed in full camouflage and face paint, sitting in a hunting blind and vowing to get revenge on the animal.

You all for being here today. Today, we celebrate the lives that were taken way too early. There's something especially painful about saying goodbye. My daughter here is shattered. I'm shattered. My wife is shattered. But I can promise you that we're gonna bring justice to the disgusting creatures that ended their lives short. And I appreciate you all being here today. Like Yes yesterday morning I woke up and found feathers everywhere. And shortly after that, I found chickens that were unalive. Some animal got into my chicken coop and ate four of my chickens. And for one last celebration of life, I'd like to crack one out for those who can't be here today. Justice will be served. And luckily, I know exactly who did it. This right here is a big bobcat. And he just happened to be at the scene of the crime at the same time of the crime. But I'm about to go John Wick on this better.
