    I DEFINITELY agree with you here and I think maybe what I said made it seem as though I compare the food industry to rattlesnake roundups. That is not at all true... rattlesnake roundups are NEEDLESS killing without any purpose other than "fun". There is NO excuse for such a barbaric act in modern times... none, and I in no way meant to imply that we should lump them together with animals slaughtered for food. merely was commenting on how we are so quick to jump when the cruelty involves herps but give little to no thought about the fates of MANY other species that are killed by the millions on a daily basis. No matter why they are killed, they are still treated and killed entirely inhumanely (not to mention the extremely unsanitary, deplorable conditions they are in before and after slaughter) and without any respect for the animal, whether it be a rattlesnake at a roundup or a pig on the kill floor. Nothing upsets me more than the needless killing that goes on at places such as rattlesnake roundups... or... have you ever been fishing and stumbled upon a "graveyard" of sunfish? A lot of people will catch a ton of sunfish and bluegill and kill them, smack them off rocks... just because, and leave the pile to lay and rot. Any time I have to take an animal's life I give thought to make sure I kill it as quickly and painlessly as possible, whether I am utilizing it as a feeder, eating it myself, or euthanizing it because it is suffering. I absolutely HATE breaking a trout's neck but it's much kinder than stringing it up on a ******** or waiting for it to suffocate in a bag.
