Speaking of ... I stumbled on a video of bloods being slaughtered for skin to make purses yesterday...Not a pretty site. I thought about posting but its to horrific to say the least.

I've seen that. Sad to us but there it's food on the table whether it's selling the skins or eating the meat or both.

It's hard for us, who love our slithering housemates to imagine smashing one on the head with a 4x4 to kill it but then over there they find it hard to believe we don't eat our cats and dogs.

Cultural upbringing is powerful stuff.

It's not about right or wrong when your families welfare is at stake. We here in America don't realize how hand-to-mouth many other cultures have it. There are no drive throughs, there are no paychecks. You grow it you eat. You kill it you eat. You catch and sell it you eat.

Do none of the above, you starve.
