You're still not referencing a study, nor do you come across as an expert.

Wait. You think Im an expert on dogs? When did I ever state that? <- Sorry. Im dumb.

Also: A study? Its just a link to a website discussing dying dogs.

I thought TIL was for things that you learned about.

I didnt realize that this sub was so serious.

edit: Oh shit! It was my mistake!!

hopefully someone whos an expert here

Oops. Im sorry! I missed this part of your post!! Im not an expert. I just thought it was interesting that there may be another reason for how dogs behave when they die (other than the common - dying dogs leave the pack to die alone).

I specifically asked for someone who knows their stuff and you voluntarily jumped in as the OP. You don't know what you're talking about it seems (to me), you haven't referenced any studies and you've just admitted that you just started doing research. Why are you condemning the entire board now?

Because I made a mistake. I didnt mean to condemn the board. I just dont want to make a mistake like this again.

Pointless discussion and a waste of both of our time.

Thanks to this discussion, I learned a lot about dying dogs and dog behaviour. It was very interesting.

Well at least you learned something.
