trust me when the loonies have run out of animals to protect they will start defending the rights of vegetables
kinda looking after their own kind if you will
i for one am against animal cruelty and when i had a mice infestation i used those humane mouse traps that simply trap the mouse so you can empty the trap elswhere and let the mouse run free
i should however mention i own a corn snake and it was pretty interesting to see how the snake crushed the mouses spine and ate it alive still twitching as it slid down the snakes throat when i emptied the trap into its tank
thank god for HUMANE mouse traps they saved me buying frozen mice for a few weeks
