And cane toads have dramatically decreased my handicap...
Im completely against strengthening animal cruelty laws. I like to be able to go fishing, hunting and feed my animals all these things are considered cruelty by some ppl.
I know plenty of ppl blatently break cruelty laws in Qld by feeding live fish or shrimp(shrimp etc. arnt covered in other states) to their turtles or fish, do these ppl really belong in jail for extented sentances?
I have no time for psychos who get off torturing stuff, but often simply killing or even keeping an animal is seen as cruelty by some.
Cris,
I agree with you – strengthening animal cruelty rules will result in RSPCA and the like getting more rights – and us as a community getting loosing rights. Some people think keeping a different pet (not dog, cat, rabbit and the like) as cruel (They call keeping a snake or lizard in a cage as torturing as it is a wild animal and should be running wild). I spoke to a vet and they say that most of the reptiles she sees are not kept “correctly” and is in poor condition. If some animal rights activists had their way the following would happen:
Just a piece of trivia for you: Did you know over 300 organizations can enter your house (Read legally break down your door) without your permission – Police is not one of those organizations. I personally do not want to give away more of my rights including the right to have a reptile as a pet.
- No fishing
- No hunting of any animal (Including feral animals)
- No keeping of reptiles
- I have even seen some suggest I should become vegetarian (no eating of meat)
