The next day we tried mist netting the cave entrance, and the day after I abandoned the project entirely. I managed half an hour, and spent the whole time convinced that I was going to die. I think we caught perhaps three bats. For starters, the cave is surrounded by some rather nice forest.

There's no "compassion" in the process. A violation of trust or confidence, an abandonment of something committed to one's charge. Their claim is that what has become the customary way to take sentient nonhumans from babyhood to untimely death is not humane. It's cruel.

We should not abandon our meat-eating habits, but remoralize them, by incorporating them into affectionate human relations, and using them in the true Homeric manner, as instruments of hospitality, conviviality and peace.

For an adopter, it makes the process a little easier. A patient and loving foster home can help them through this process.
