The stupidity of these groups is really encapsulated in the names they take, Like "Animal Liberation Front".
Animals aren't "born free" into some Disney utopia. Nature, not man, is the cruelest taskmaster of the animal kingdom. There are no animal hospitals there. No humane treatment. The suffering of old and young, the brutality of fights to decide dominance, the strict pecking order, exposure to the elements, scarcity and famine, all apply.
But no. For Peta, animals away from man's "cruelty" are "free" to live in the wonderful and scenic natural world. Maybe they all have time shares in Thoreau's cabin...
Yes, real life in the oceans is brutal.
While diving, I have seen tailess fish that somehow survived, as well as mutilated shrimp. It is eat or be eaten, out there.
PETA needs to deal with it.
