no not really did i put emotions into that just started typing and let what was in my mind go but it was after my 4 year old woke me up at 2 in the morning when i posted that

but none the less i still just dont get how starving something of oxygen is considered humane heres a list of just off top of my head of oxygen starved deaths astha attack (ask anybody who's had one if they think it would be a humane way to die same with any other examples) drowning (yes not quite the same but still die due to no oxygen) choke to death on piece of food. (closest example as no-matter what can't take air in. i'm sure there is others but lets face it honestly try it stick your head in the bucket and make sure to have a buddy around to pull you out before you die bet you change your mind if you try it.

rember these are communal animals so they have emotions and feelings. just cause they are quickly put to sleep dont mean they dont feel no pain (I'm reminded of patents that there doc got the Anastassia wrong and doc swore they were asleep and could feel nothing but upon waking up the people could tell the doc what all he said and did while they were suppose to be out.
rember our brains even mice tell us or them if something is harefull to us to get away from it and you honestly think that aint going threw the mice or rats minds till they are dead

if this was so humane why is it recommended to leave the animals in the tank for so long to make sure it is dead. get a mouse or rat trap hold them and just stick them in it so it hits them in the neck they are dead before you can open the trap far less painful then starving an animal of oxygen Evan if they are asleep in the first couple seconds there brain is still active and to claim they dont feel anything is honestly just a plain lie c02 aint no Anastassia or pain med c02 is what makes us breath (ie in the fact our bodies are expelling c02 to draw in oxygen thus by adding more c02 you in fact make the body work harder to exspell the c02

Main article: Nitrogen asphyxiation

Nitrogen asphyxiation is an occasional cause of accidental death and a theoretical method of capital punishment. The painful experience of suffocation is not caused by lack of oxygen, but rather because of a buildup of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream which is exhaled under normal circumstances. After just two or three breaths of pure nitrogen, the oxygen concentration in the lungs would be low enough for some oxygen already in the bloodstream to exchange back to the lungs and be eliminated by exhalation. Crude simulation of oxygen transport through the lungs and blood stream suggests that the partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood would be about 50 percent of saturation 1 minute after switching gases and would reach zero within 3 minutes.

now look they say the pain aint caused by not being able to draw in o2 but the build up of c02 and thus must be compounded with the higher amounts of added c02 to the bucket equals more pain
