I would guess that it is part of the update that happened this morning.
Maybe its a "Alert" / "warning" or the like , just to let you know that it is a old / older thread....in an effort to keep "zombie" , old ancient , necro posts from re-appearing.

I saw it too , on a thread of mine dated 2018.....

Joe probably knows the actual answer... @Joe Link

Well its not exactly a fair fight but its still a fight and over the years in hunting lore there's been a handful of tales of the hunter losing to their quarry. IIRC it happened a few years ago around here I think it was a bow hunter was gored by the elk he wounded.
