People feel bad about feeding rats to snakes, but they don't feel bad about killing the same creatures just because they're living in the same building as people. What's the difference?
The difference is, one life is used to fuel another, and the other life is wasted.
I don't understand! Just because they aren't domestic doesn't make them any less of a rat or less of a living creature, and yet people don't bat an eye when people kill wild rats.
Not that I'm saying we shouldn't eliminate wild rodents, I just think it's dumb how one thing could get a reaction of "oh, how cruel" while the other gets "yea! kill those vermin" when for the rat, it's the same result.
Cleaning up after your dogs is for our own health along with the dog's health, and I'm not sure how it compares feeding a "smart" animal to a "dumb" one. Feces left outside brings flies, which can bring disease, not to mention all the bacteria that grows on poop.
