I know it’s a joke but with the caption “nature in a nutshell” makes it as though this is perfectly legit and plants the wrong idea to people that all animal species do this. Some species would instinctively leave their young but not buffaloes. Buffaloes rarely leave their young to predators unless they know it’s totally hopeless to save them. This meme could have picked a more accurate species that does this escape tactic.
It seems like this joke is a recent perpetuation. I’ve seen in Reddit talk about it as well.
Yeah I saw one crossing the road in a city I used to live in. I didn’t ask why it was (cause it’s rude to impose) but I could clearly see that it was just trying to get to the other side.
I laughed so hard at how grossly wrong the general idea is being presented in this meme. It’s like the repetition of “alpha wolf” myth.
Why do people like you even bother reading jokes?

Well, go on???
Well you see, son… When a mama chicken and a daddy road love each other very much…

So they have something feel superior about, probably.
Basically. Who the hell goes “well achully…” when they hear a joke? It’s annoying.
