This quite grotesque image is rather compelling; the question is, is it genuine?
It seems plausible a bird could survive this briefly, but looking at the details of the picture reveals definite ambiguity. Are the feathers missing, or has the bird moved?

There's...
There's just no way..
I think the heart of the issue is actually; why did the falcon leave?
My bet is that the scenerio played out a bit like so: "Oh sweet, a gull. Haha, tearing off your head, bitch, this is going to be delic- wait wait holy shit ZOMBIES, NO ONE TOLD ME 'BOUT FUCKIN' ZOMBIES. HO FUCK YOU GUYS ARE ON YOUR OWN."
Not incidentally, the anyone else think the gull is looking around as if to say "haters gon' hate"?
I think it's genuine. Birds are fucked up.

You said it.
agreed
M.J. reincarnated in a bird!??!?!
too early dude
Well, maybe he was reincarnated as a duck and is fucking a male duckling right now?
Most likely shopped. No blood to the brain. I don't know if bird brains can surive any longer than the human brain but it would hurt a lot no? Doubt the bird could just stand up and look around like that.
i think its shopped but you cant go by the "well a human cant do it" standards. cause a turtle can still move with its head chopped off for days. but i dont thing a bird can move like that looking like that.
Actually, a chicken survived for months without a head: I read that in the Guiness World Records Museum.
Yes, but from the looks of it all the muscle and connective tissues in the 'photo' are gone... so there is no way for it to hold the fully intact head up, it would not have the ability with the muscles gone. Plus it should be bleeding all over.
mike the headless chicken...
ranks number one in my most awesome things in the world list.
I dont know...my vote is on genuine though since theres not any obvious mark of shoop =)
wen falcons attack they strip at the prey... blood vessels could have been ruptured if it attacked at its neck and it would have bled out
shopped. if you look closely at the last two pics, there are suspicious pixels around the head, the rest are smooth
A head-less chicken was reported to have lived for quite sometime somewhere i heard. Its quite possible?
technically its not alive it just moves around. it wouldnt be able to do anything like the pics suggest
You're thinking about Mike?
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_the_Headless_Chicken?]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_the_Headless_Chicken?
Hail to the GARest chicken ever; even his own decapitation did not affect his determination.
*Salute*
Definitely shopped. Look at the pixels around the head of the stripped bird...
well, look at the wingtips in 2-5, same kind of artifact.
In any case, it is probably real, birds do not respond in the same way as humans to injury. For one their brains don't need as much blood, so they don't bleed all that much from neck injuries.
I'm not an expert on bird anatomy, but there doesn't seem to be enough neck present to be compatible with life. A bird doesn't live on its spine alone.
That's how it appears in the pictures, at least.
So I'd say it's shopped, but why would you bother to shop such a picture?
Ｂｏｎｅ ｉｓ ａｌｌ ｙｏｕ ｔｒｕｌｙ ｎｅｅｄ， ｉｎ ｔｈｅ ｒｉｇｈｔ ｐｏｓｉｔｉｏｎ．
Some one photo shopped it or manually balanced its head, after chasing off the hawk. I think the bird is already dead.
Definitely shopped. Notice how the part of the head and the background doesn't match..... Besides that, birds neck are never that long. =P
flamingoes brah
Tis' shooped.
The last 2 pictures look shopped to me :P
He got owned.
yea looks shopped.. don't think any living creatures can survive with a fatal wound like that.
Actually, a chicken survived for months without a head: I saw in in the Guiness World Records Museum.
This is shooped. I can tell from the pixels and from seeing quite a few shoops in my time.
Shopped. There aren't any muscles to hold up the neck.
The final argument to convince me its false. Indeed, that would seem un-possible.
Well I've seen worst than this one. I guess someone needs to upload the film so we can truly know.
there's a cat with that kind of neck too nearby my house, fcukd up neck.... don't know who did that...
Predatory birds will literally gut or decapitate their prey.
Likely a trained predatory bird here.
The pictures at the bottom image 7 and 8 - are pictures from before the gull was attacked.
IMO image 6 would be before image 1. Since the predatory bird likely hit him for a stun, then landed and ripped the it's throat.
That and the neck isn't showing room for the gull to have an actual throat. It looks like bone and muscle with no in-between.
ah darn. Guess I have to retract my comment.
*shrugs*
Shopped or not, that bird got owned.
My great-grandmother told me that a chicken sometimes runs away after you decapitated it. It runs just a few seconds, but that's enough to take those pics. But I think this special one is shopped cuz the neck seems too long.
Hate to break it to ya, but it's more akin to an epileptic fit than running, the body spazzes out and is a rather grotesque sight to behold when you haven't cut the head clean off.
Agreed that it's a shop, doesn't look like enough neck to breathe with or hold the head up, and the idea that a hawk didn't actually eat the bird seems unnatural.
I said hawk only because i never think of falcons. Btw hello everybody on SC, hope to stay for a while.
You need to google Mike the headless chicken.
He lived on for another 18 months without a head.
Birds don't need brain to survive, only the stem. And the hole is enough to breathe.
The bird in this pic is way better off than Mike, who could preen and crow without any head at all. (though the crowing sounded more like gurgling.)
I said hawk only because I don't think of falcons that often. Btw HARO everyone at SC here, except for Tyrenol. LOL
If it is shopped (which according to the comments it sounds like it most likely is) I have to ask, why would anybody waste their time doing this?
According to the misinformed comments, you mean.
Read the comments of the people who know what they're talking about, and you'll get a different opinion.
Particularly all the people mentioning Mike. (A chicken who lived on without a head for over a year, and is in the Guiness book.)
one reason i stopped visiting /b/ was because of gore, why the hell do he have to see this here? it isn't even japanese related....
What gave you the impression this site is limited to only Japanese related things? Besides, it came from 2ch...
then what is this site about? the title says "anime, manga and games, observed from japan" and the about page clearly talks about japanese related stuff... sure it doesn't say anything about limitations, but one wouldn't thought pictures of animals almost bleeding to death to be included...
even if it comes from 2ch still doesn't justify this post, some common sense would be nice, why don't you start posting pictures of dead people and ask if it's shopped or not?
anyway, its your site, and you are probably going to just ignore me
I'll be sure to post some pictures if I see any of interest.
