I don’t think she is making anything worse. Don’t try to defend this. I’ve had animals that required live feedings, I’ve had animals that refused frozen/thawed but would eat freshly dispatched. So I dispatched. It’s one side showing that. The reality of trying to care for these animals. There’s nothing educational about the pain being inflicted in these videos.

I COULD feed him like that, or could have since he was small..... and the entire world would know how INSANE and barbaric it is while knowing wild dogs and wolves hunt, and kill other animals for food.... same with reptiles .if you can AVOID suffering of an animal to feed your animals great but even if you cant like in the instance of things like snakes who wont take pre killed or frozen prey- - the LAST thing anyone should be doing is making a spectacle out of it...

“The question is not, Can they reason?, nor Can they talk? but, Can they suffer?" So sad... There are actually adoption places now that make their processes really hard and even want to view your set up for an animal before adoption now. At the time it bothered me because my pet was showing signs of loneliness and needed companionship, but when i see things like this i'm grateful some places are vetting potential owners now. Imagine being surrendered only to be possibly put in that situation by someone going around picking up free to good home pets.. That's cruddiest hand to be dealt in life.

"Natural" is the least accurate thing for those...actions. Calling it natural or that this is just how predators feed is literally the most wrong thing ever. I own a mangrove snake, feeding it freeze/thawed mice and sometimes a chick. That's ethical and right for a pet (especially since mine isn't an import but captive bred). These people and their followers just look for excuses to make their sadism seem sensible, it is not! Some people should unironically be left inside an enclosure with a hungry tiger. It should teach the rest of their "community" a lesson.

These sadistic videos in many ways represents all of us and to remain passive and not voice my dislike is more than I can bear.

We can easily go further but I’d like to hear your thoughts and would really appreciate the help getting the word out!

If you have too many animals to feed humanely (not to mention safely for the reptile) then you have too many animals. Period. I was only willing to get a pet I knew I could feed ethically. It's crucial to ask that shit and demand good care from sellers. I scroll past live feeders on MM all the time. I've had pet rats. They're smart, funny, affectionate little buddies. basically dogs with a heartbreakingly short life span. Every time I thaw one for my BP I thank it. Like even if you don't wanna do f/t you can have a colony and do fresh killed with a humane method. This makes me want to believe in hell so I can be comforted by the idea that these psychos will be suffering worse than these poor animals for all eternity.

In my time of owning the five ball pythons I have, I have only ever had to resort to feeding a live rodent ONCE. When I did feed a live rodent to one of my snakes, I cried. My fiance couldn't even watch it happen. Live feeding should only be a last resort to get your snake to eat. I was also nervous about the fact that he might end up favouring live over frozen thawed after feeding him one live rodent, thankfully he went right back to eating frozen thawed the following week. Feeding live animals to another shouldn't be a fucking spectacle for people. That animal is a life, and it shouldn't be killed and filmed for some sickos with no regard for living creatures. The second I saw the footage of the live leopard gecko being fed to that Tegu, I was FURIOUS! That pathetic excuse of a man should be put in jail. Makes everyone in the reptile hobby look like we are just keeping these animals to fulfill some sick twisted fetish of killing animals for views. I've also been guilty of following Chandler's wildlife back when he starting blowing up three years ago, but I unfollowed him because he reminds me of every fuck boy that I went to high school with, I found him and still find him to be insufferable to watch.
