Most of the Cruelty to Animals legislation define animals as terrestrial vertebrates, not including humans. Some include fish, and some consider crustaceans to be animals when in a restaurant only. Insects are not included, so that specific law does not apply to them.

This subject tends to be a bit of a Pandora's Box, evry one has an opinion. So I will remind everyone now of APS Rule 17 which prohibits people from encouraging illegal activities (like feeding live). Members have been infracted for breaching this rule in the past. Asking the question is OK, but responses like "The law is an ***, go and feed live anyway and ignore what everyone else says" will get you a holiday from APS.
