Puppy Throwing Video

There's video floating around on the internet of two soldiers stationed in Iraq throwing an eight-week old puppy off a cliff. The video can be found here. It's very graphic and, if such things bother you, I encourage you not to click on the link.

Quite honestly, I'm not sure if this video is a hoax or not. I keep getting the impression that the puppy was already dead by that point, and puppies that young can die naturally from a myriad of causes (especially if they have been separated from their mother). I know that a lot of puppies and kittens go limp when you pick them up by the scruff of the neck, but something tells me that it wasn't alive when they were holding it. I would expect a live animal to move its paws or something. And I definitely think it would have flailed right before the soldier chucked it. Not to mention they way it bounced when it hit the ground. I don't think a live animal would have acted that way. The sound of the yelping could have been edited into the video later. So...for those of you who have the stomach to watch this video, what do you think? Is it a hoax or not?

At any rate, the video is in extremely poor taste.
