Ever heard of a shrike? It’s a pretty small species of bird that loves to stab small animals to death and eat them. They even eat other birds. They’re adorable little psychopaths and one of the few non-raptorial carnivorous bird species.

These things would go hard as anthro preds. Probably hunt wayyyyyy above their weight class just for shits and giggles.
