How is this discussion productive? I see it as nothing but victim blaming. Freezing is a VERY valid form of defense in the wild. There are LOTS of animals that when encountered with danger and simply freeze. They may be too small to fight, and flight would indicate that they are there. Freeze enables them to simply get lost in their surroundings and hopefully avoid the predator. Uhm, you are aware that many predators don't have the greatest eyesight and rather depend on simply seeing the movement of their pray, correct?
