On average, over 100 rhinos were illegally killed each month. Molewa added that so far this year 49 rhino had been killed countrywide. The sky was becoming orange-pink; its reflections were colouring the water, while the rhino raised its head, water sipping through his half-open snout, itself shining from the last sun rays of the day.

Not very subtle in their self-presentation, these birds. Not a bad look though – more attractive than the male breeding plumage, I think. Carrion Crows like to think of themselves as very modern birds. To enhance this image, they very much like to pose on power lines.

And the absurdity is in the reality that the author and the featured person who kills sentient nonhumans for a living, think they're onto something. While plenty of people pay attention to the question of what it means to raise an animal humanely, far fewer stop to consider the notion—and the ostensible paradox—of humane slaughter."

For me, a bird called the California Condor has taken over more of my thoughts lately, and I decided it was time to see one before giving a presentation about it to the Rachel Carson Commemoration at the National Aviary in May. Their hallmark: They don’t kill. My first view of them was at a distance.

It's too bad that Latimer's presentation is so obnoxious, as even when he raises what might be valid points, he makes you want to disagree with him. Again, they just want to prevent the "cruel" hunters from killing Bambi's mother. And one of that handful is the environment. First of all, does he really believe that piffle?

So, even if animals are killed painlessly and raised for food in humane ways, it is wrong to kill them. Consequently, the killing of some animals for food, if done painlessly, is not morally objectionable. The question remains whether it is seriously wrong to kill animals for food. But this is surely dubious.

From the point of view of religion, however, the question presents a challenge. Where there are conscientious carnivores, however, there is a motive to raise animals kindly. All animals would be kept in battery conditions and the righteous vegetarians would exert no economic pressure on farmers to change their ways.

To the Editor: Soon after I read Gary Steiner’s article, my wife asked me to kill a spider, which I did. We kill so many living creatures when we build a house, construct a road, drive down that road or just walk on a path. But even then if we were to survive we would have to kill some animals in self-defense.

Some of the arguments I will present are not worked out in detail, and no detailed criticisms of any one provegetarian argument will be given.

From Hiro, we learn how Northern Pygmy Owls are “rule breakers,” not incubating eggs till all are hatched and then raising owlets that mature at the same rate even though the eggs were laid asynchronously (as most owl eggs are). I’m wondering if the subject of this book itself presented a challenge.

It turns out that there are new things that can be learned about extinct birds, and that even if the conclusion is obvious–the bird is gone, there is no time machine and we can’t change that–the way in which it is presented can differ as well. “Winter Sports in Northern Louisiana: Shooting Wild Pigeons.”

Similarly, although there are differences between human beings and other animals, there are no moral differences that justify human beings’ killing and eating animals but not killing and eating one another. Moreover, since it is morally wrong to kill and eat human beings, it is morally wrong to kill and eat animals.

Not only are they killed in cruel ways, but it is well documented that they are raised in ways that cause them great discomfort and agony. The question that must be raised, however, is how the conclusion not to eat meat follows from this. So, if one wants to change the present practice, the best means is to stop eating meat.
