Animal Abuse

Post: # 8565Post ronald »

I thought it might be useful to post a new topic on animal abuse so we can collect various related issues.

Dolphins:

what really got me there was, beyond their abuse in fishing methods, [had real hard time watching btw] they sell the dolphin meat, mislabeled for WHALE meat! How common is consumption of whale meat anyways?

How often? Well, it's an exotic plate... Rich people have that answer :D

Another animal abuse is lion in circus. They burn them (I think it's the foot) so that they learn their "tricks". And it's not only lion, but almost literally ALL animals. In labs, in media, in EVERYTHING. Chimps are one sad example. They beat them and sometimes they don't care they die. 99% (or 90%?) of genes ressemblance? Ya right, if it was they are beating their own kind. I've just finished a book where they talk about pigs. It describes how they kill the pigs and it ends up in your sandwich. Consider that the next time you eat any meat :D Mmmm.... meat... :twisted: Anyway, they are animals... and it is nature to kill to nourish ourselves... but not that much :cry:

Edit - I've just finished watching the video... Ptex, yes it was disgusting, but we have to face reality and change it :) I encourage everyone to watch that, if you are capable, of course. A before-taste: They cut their throat when they are alive to make them bleed to death. What's sad is that dolphins are super kind to us... If you ever watch Simpsons (yes, the cartoon), I like the episode where dolphins took revenge and ruled over the world :twisted: :P
