I learned something this weekend that will help all of us deal a little better with the grief that accompanies loss. I found this especially helpful after hearing about the airport incident. Animals have the ability to remove themselves from their body when they pass, therefore they feel no pain that may be associated with their passing. This is especially interesting in situations of animals that are preyed upon by other animals. If the predator senses that the soul has not passed on before they move in for the kill, they will pass on a meal as the timing is "not right".
