"pammyT" wrote in message ... "Alan Holmes" wrote in message news I am sorry but the thought of any creature struggling to breath for several minutes while underwater turns my stomach. You have absolutely no idea of the prcedure for disposing of vermin, when I had to start dealing with these pests, I was concerned about the effect it was having, so I timed it, it generaly takes less that ten seconds. You are deluding yourself.It would be able to hold its breath, then even after the first lungful of water it would be concious for some seconds. May I suggest you hold your head in a bucket of water until your lungs are bursting, then inhale some water, then come back and tell me is is painless and humane. As I said before, I nearly drowned as a 9 year old child and it was terrifying.The mere thought of it makes me take big gulps of breath just to dispell the mental image. This is nothing compared with the suffering this vermin makes when it raids birds nests. You obviously hate the things because you are imagining things. When any animal raids a birds nest it will take eggs and chicks, the chicks I would assume die quickly from a bite or shock. Nothing compared to drowning. Cull if you must but have the decency to do it quickly, painlessly and without causing undue terror or suffering. You make it sound like you almost justify causing suffering because they are so great a vermin. I do wonder whether you read any of my posts properly. I follow a procedure which is laid down by a governmenr department called The Forestry Commission, if you have any problems with that procedure I suggest instead of trying to slag people off here, you contact them and put your concerns to them. It is widely recognised in this country that the grey squirrel is vermin and has to be kept under control, if you are unhappy about that then I suggest you stop reading uk newsgroups. |
