I was reading this thread recently, the OP has a picture of them burning live animals.

I ask - where do you personally draw the line? When does it stop becoming necessity, and start becoming sadism/cruelty? When is it ever appropriate to torture an animal that's already trapped? Is it okay if it's vermin like a coyote or a mouse?

Interested to see the rationale behind it, and why people do what they do.

What about drowning vermin in cages or kittens or puppies on a farm?  Interesting question.

Never okay to torture an animal. How is that even a question? I don't care if it's a rat or an insect. Anybody who does so should be given the same treatment.

There was some Wolf dude on that thread calling me a PETA member 'cos I said burning something alive was terrible and that it'd be better using a shovel. I just don't understand the logic.

It’s never appropriate to torture animals.  Eliminating pests and vermin has to be done sometimes but it’s not an excuse for sadism.

Btw, welcome to our site fellow firearms enthusiast!

Hi!

I have a super keen interest in hunting and wanted to share stories about how we go about hunting wild hogs out in the arid climate but reading threads like that where people actually post torture pics is very off-putting.

The end of a shovel applied to the neck. I'm not particularly sure on the strength of air pistols, but I imagine a headshot with those would be an insta-kill.

Vermin are vermin. I don't make animals suffer unnecessarily, but I don't go out of my way to ensure that the way I dispose of vermin is exceptionally humane.

I don't disagree with that, but honestly I put field mice in the same category as spiders.  I've had mice traps do some pretty bad things to mice and I've had to clean up blood all around the trap as they tried to free themselves before eventually succumb to their injury.

Not sure how this is even a question for you OP? Never OK to torture, if you have some killing to do get it done and make it quick. Cruelty and torture of animals is a sore spot for me. Can't stand cultures that have no problem with it. The Chinese come to mind and their shit culture. I saw a video that I will never get out of my head. Huge wok, Chinese sitting around laughing, They open the lid and a dog, still alive, no fur, blind leaps out of the wok and they erupt in even greater laughter. Nothing COC to say about that.

People who torture animals as kids are often serial killers as adults, so there's that.

What's fucked up is setting live animals on fire. I don't think it's really being much of a drama queen to point out a potential violent criminal. Needs to be nipped at the bud. Also, the thread does ask a legit question.

In all honesty it's because I read that thread, and there were only a couple of people pointing it out and I would've thought more people in that thread would've questioned it. Pics like that ain't a good look, but it's really nice to see decent, level-headed folk here.

I hate those glue traps, there is nothing "humane" about them.  What choice do you have; let them drown in a bucket, throw them in a fire, smash them with a cinder block, throw them outside and let them starve to death?

True but that only happened in OPs head.


Purposely sticking needles in them to see how many it would take to kill them would have been fucked up, they didn't last more than a few seconds thrown in a hot fire.

They weren't "thrown" in a hot fire, they were set alight manually. There is no bonfire or any kind of incinerator in that picture, or any kind of fire to "throw" them into.

That you're actually defending this is S-tier stupid.

Number Two on my father’s list of guidelines to “doing the right thing”:

“2.  Do what must be done, but never bring unnecessary suffering to another living creature through malice or thoughtlessness.”

I’ve lived this advice all my life, and thus far, I’ve not had cause for regret.

I'm not against killing stuff that needs killing per se, just do it quick and without looking for sadistic pleasure from the act.

Killing 'em with fire could swing both ways I suppose.

i think any living creature your killing, deserves the most painless / quickest death possible, even vicious dogs deserve a quick death, as they dont know any better, but must be removed for the safety of all.


except traitors, child molestors and a few others, they knew exactly what they were doing. they deserve to be eaten to death by fire ants while staked naked on a ant hill, to scream in agony for days while being slowly eaten alive, to serve as examples as to why that kind of lifestyle should be avoided at all costs.. while crowds cheer in glee.

I use .22LR rat shot when I catch a mouse on a glue trap. It obliterates them at close range.
