Right! Nature is Nature. What they don't realize is the amount of merciless killing their cute little cats do in the ecosystem. Also, killing that is far from quick and painless. They kill for fun and toy with their prey. Where are your anti cat videos, peta? Rodents carry disease and cause vast amounts of damage. Glue traps are a great way to get rid of them.

[@poopookaka2831]

Nah do adopt a Ferret they are the real deal here

[@Lem0nIlja]

The difference between you and other animals is that the other animals do not have a concept of empathy. They don't understand humane, they don't have that. And you are a human. Which means you do understand empathy and cruelty. By your own logic "it totally not cruel so long as human didn't do it" You draw no distinction between yourself (human) and other animals who mostly act out of instict. By this logic you are no different to any other animal, your pick. They also act out of instict alone.

[@brandonwill8301]

@@christopherhelton6999 yes in high school when you got owl left overs and had to try and pace back together the mouse from the bones

[@jeremiahanderson614]

I'm not for the torture of infliction of pain and death on anything. We also have to recognize the damage that mice can do and potential hazards they cause. Not to mention, they are not human, therefore there is no humane way to interact with them. In the wild they face a host of predators. Humans have created their own environment due to our ability to reason and make deductions. We are weaker than a lot of animals, but our ability to use tools, and bind together to allow specializing in skills has manifested in the creation of such traps. It isn't for fun, but mice cannot be allowed to linger in a residential area. Sorry, but mice that run into an alpha environment will be rejected by any means necessary. This is just as natural as a cat killing it in a yard. We don't have the claws or reflexes, so rely on intellect to find ways of doing the same thing. Does a bull worry about the things he gores with his horns? No he protects his realm. Humans do the same.

[@tailzgaming4230]
