He probably died in the claws of a hawk..... I only just met it and
returned it to the forest when the photo was taken. It was a wild bird.....

ole
| boys decided a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do....
|
| About 3 hours later they staggered into the bar.... sober, pale and
| lookin'
| like one sorry lot. Didn't take much to find out that despite two guns
| [both
| wrong for the job-rifles]..... even after ten shots there were bloody
| screaming kittens jumping or clawing out of the bag! They had to reload!
| One
| of them had tears in his eyes. They both had nightmares about bloody
| screaming kittens for weeks.
|
| Next morning I took down 8 grouse in two shots with my12 gauge pump.....
| all tumbled dead to the ground.

the

| |
| | So, are you saying that you should pay good money to a vet to ease
| their
| | passage into the next world? $100 could feed an African baby for
| about
| | two
| | years. Would it not be better to put your sick pet into a weighted
| sack,
| | and throw it into the river, so that you could donate the $100 to an
| | African
| | charity??
| |
| | In other words, is three minutes of suffering for a dumb pet worth
| two
| | years of life for a human??
