The message
from "pammyT" contains these words: I am sorry but the thought of any creature struggling to breath for several minutes while underwater turns my stomach. I nearly drowned as a youngster and it was not pleasant and certainly not fast. The memory has never left me and I would never advocate using this bloody inhumane method of killing anything. Much as I dislike grey squirrels (except in a pie or casserole) I have to agree with the above. I rescued some sort of fly from rainwater in a container, yesterday as it struggled to get a grip on the plastic sides. Any squirrels I kill depart suddenly, with a ·22" hole in the head. -- Rusty Open the creaking gate to make a horrid.squeak, then lower the foobar. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |

I have no problem with killing vermin. In theory, I have no problem with killing any animal. But as a rational compassionate human being, I abhoir cruelty and suffering. If you must eradicate vermin, for heaven's sake, do it fast without making the creature suffer. It doesn't *know* it is vermin. It doesn't act the way it does, simply to make a nuisance of itself. It is simply being a grey squirrel. |
