In the case of fox hunting (a true bloodsport), dogs are domesticated animals that are killing, not for food, but for sport. Falconry birds are essentially free to come and go as they choose when they are hunting (unlike bloodsports like cock fighting and dog fighting). This contribution to the education of our children is invaluable.

The father tells us that the alligator was born and raised on the property. And one of the groups demonized by the mainstream is people who think it's unethical to demonize, disrespect and slaughter animals. In America, we demonize not only certain animals, but certain people. What's wrong with this picture?

The dog-loving owners of the property in Julian where he sought refuge rushed him to the local veterinarian, who informed them that if his leg was amputated, he could live as an indoor cat. Cathy and Donna, the staunchly dog-only people, decided to bring the kitten home with them to help him heal after the successful amputation of his leg.

would call HSUS an animal rights group (after all, HSUS doesn't even do that). But for the average discussion with the average, dog and cat person, I say stick with the language they use ("I love animals," "I only buy meat that was humanely raised"), and use those opportunities to educate them and point out the inconsistency in their claims.

Every day myself and other 'friends' went out of our way to terrify the poor helpless dog that used to live in this filthy run down shed for shelter. I hope that you'll find it in your heart to give up just two hours of your time as these beautiful and gentle dogs are literally running for their lives. I wonder how well that works.

This of course raises questions of what happens when all of the inland nesting grounds of all the loons becomes covered with glacial ice during ice ages, then later, the ice melts and the lakes return. Do the same pairs return, if possible, to the same nests after their long winter migration? My Best Bird of the Year is… Not a bird.
