Sonny is the same way....total instinct reractive to prey like rabbits which are very plentiful here, lizards, etc....his arch nemesis are birds for some reason....oddly he seems not to be bothered by cats. I therefore always need to keep him on a leash especially hiking or camping. I have to keep him on a tie out camping because like Kiira he would just take off on chase and I'm sure he'd find hius way back but I don't wanna risk the possibility he doesn't.
Most birds are fine, and she loves just sitting next to my PC on a chair against the balcony window watching birds. It's only crows that get her angry, cause the fuckers actually play with her...
And yeah, just like Sonny, she'll probably find her way back most of the time, but the chance that we might not is simply not worth it. We just always walk her with a 5 meter leash (just a plain leash, not one of those silly things with a handle), so she has enough freedom to snoot around and do whatever she wants, but cannot run off.
I'm quite curious what would happen if she'd actually catch something though. At some point in the dark this fall a hedgehog was suddenly in between me and her, and all she did was trying to get it to play with her Same with a frog she "caught" during the roadtrip, she was just happily dooting it with her nose and not harming it whatsoever...
