Its not about how a animal kills another animal. He is trying to say the BP was killed in pain as if the feeder was not suppose to meet the same fate and so its wrong.

Yes every thing has a right to protect its self. So if you kill a human who was going to kill you then eat him its fair also.

actually, when the BP gets a good hold, its heart failure induced by disruption of blood circulation. so the mouse or rat goes unconscious and dies much faster, compared to asphyxiation. its quite humane.

see above.... if all goes to plan, the rhodent is dead long before asphyxiation could kill it.
if the picture actually shows what it implies (i still say its possible someone fed a dead BP to a mouse and the BP died from something else), then its cruel, unusual, and really slow. and preventable.
a mouse getting killed by a constrictor is not the same. seconds instead of hours, thats 3 orders of magnitude of difference right there.

Well I will keep waiting for my BP to kill so well as he still has yet to kill a feeder in under one min. Heck the last one he ate was still making noise as he started.

As many have pointed out:
- It's a mouse, not a rat.
- It's 100% real. Not faked or staged.
And the point is if you feed live don't leave it unattended like that. You can get away with leaving a pup or younger but certainly not an adult feeder.
How this turned into a philosophical debate on the sanctity of life I have no idea.
What trollfeast? All I see is a bunch of BP owners having a conversation about killing.
