A starveing man on a beach found a wounded dog and spent half an hour killing it with a stone. Nature applauds both for the fight and the life to life exchange morals had nothing to do with the end result. However if the man could kill it expediently with a bullet, that is where his concience and choice should enter the fray. Ditto if the man is modern and kills a dog for his supper in meat starved China. What is a loving pet here is food for others elsewhere and vice versa.
Flesh is food to others in nature ,borders only change the ideals.
However only one animal has ideals to begin with. All rights reserved.
