Our father used to kill animals, now he watches animal videos.

Our father has a violent aversion to animals and is aggressive towards them. He has a history of killing chickens, dogs, cats, and hates bird feeders. We've taken steps to try and distance him from wildlife and pets. We were able to rehome some of them, but after losing lives. Initially, he was secretive about his actions, but eventually, he became open and even admitted what he had been doing on his own accord.

Now, for the kicker – he has begun watching YouTube videos featuring cute animals. These are the same animals he was killing just a couple of years ago. Strange, indeed.
