Culling Healthy Animals

[Adam_Wysocki]

Can't we just say we know where each side's coming from and leave it at that?

I'm sorry, but I cannot. I am morally opposed to the idea of the wholesale killing of healthy animals for no other reason than they're not worthy of investing the time needed to place them into a good, responsible home.

There are literally hundreds of husbandry practices and ideologies in this hobby/business that I don't agree with, but I accept ... but advocating the killing of "lesser" animals is wrong and something I will never accept.

These are not iPods, they're not "widgets", they're not some disposable product that can just be thrown away on a whim ... they are a life and they deserve better.

Everyone else might be willing to shut up and just pretend that it's OK to kill healthy animals because they're "cheap", or hard to find a good home for, or a "mutt", or whatever excuse you want to make for it, but I am not. In my opinon, the mere idea is a reflection of everything that's wrong with this hobby/business.

Blessings,
