He ate little birds and tiny creatures for his own personal enjoyment than out of any need for survival. What could he say? He enjoyed the delightful crunch they made when their tiny lives were snuffed out in one swift snap of his jaws. They also made rather excellent toys for little games once the wings were snipped.
