Every animal in the world will do two things: live and die. Disney’s The Lion King (1994) illustrates this concept perfectly. One second, a monkey is introducing a baby lion into the world. Thirty minutes later, you’re sobbing watching that baby lions father being trampled to death. That movie wasn’t lying when it talked about the circle of life moving us all.  

If you love animals, you probably hate animals dying. I remember when the seminal film Marley and Me hit theatres, and animal lovers everywhere were both obsessed and outraged by the devastating & predictable ending. I wouldn’t be surprised if that flick was the impetus for the creation of DoesTheDogDie.com and other sources that protect the emotions of animal lovers. Animals are not immortal, but there’s no need to consume incredibly depressing media about their deaths. That would be way too cruel for a meme website to do.
