[QUOTE="Ski, post: 5491744, member: 20583"] Over summer I had a bulldog die of cancer. The other bulldog laid on her bed and wouldn't eat, then died a couple days later of no apparent physical ailments. Animals grieve. I have no idea what they feel or how, but I recognize that it happens, and can empathize. I love hunting. I love venison. But I take no solace or joy in killing. It's a means to an end, nothing more. None of that prevents me from doing it, though. My drive to hunt and eat wild game outweighs my empathy for the animal. I am a predator. They are prey. It's the natural order of things. [/QUOTE]
