Hey Sal, maybe a chance to educate someone here....
That is what my original reply was about.
In some cases the offense should be treated the same as leaving a loaded gun lying around. IMO.
You seriously expect me to “educate” ignorant, heartless morons?
And no, they don’t just “fall into a torpor and die peacefully.”
Freezing them considered the -most- inhumane way of euthanizing *sick* snakes, let alone healthy ones.
They suffer just as much as a puppy or kitten would.
Freezing fish is also incredibly brutal.
The again, I’m obviously not dealing with biologists, here.
Everyone who laughed, mocked or gloated about this act of soulless cruelty is a sadistic, cowardly, phobic prick, IMO.
[so, do you want me to say how I “really feel”?]
