Two men relaxed on a patio overlooking a lush garden, talking conversationally.
“I’m having a lot of trouble with these pests. They’re just everywhere! In my backyard, my pond, and even the kids’ sandbox,” the larger man said, shaking his head.
His companion sipped from a bottle. “Same with us. They destroy everything, but I still feel bad about killing them. They’re probably just trying to survive.” The smaller man paused before pointing to the ground. “Look, there’s one now.”
The larger man stomped on the creature with a look of disgust before wiping his boot.
“Pesky humans,” he grumbled.
