[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As if geese who aren't hit by cars die pain-free deaths floating away on a morphine drip surrounded by family.  :roll: 
Get over it, people. Wild animals either starve to death, die of disease, or are eaten alive by another animal. The ones who get shot or hit by a car at high speed probably suffer the least. Of course nobody wants an animal to suffer unnecessarily, but you are living in la-la-land if you think this goose somehow had a worse death than any of its brethren.[/quote]

So that means it’s ok to inflict suffering and walk away? If someone hot your dog they should just leave it?  :roll: [/quote]

I said wild animals. Some pets are lucky and get to be euthanized. Other pet lovers "love" their animals so much they allow them to suffer on long beyond what would be kind. I think OP should have called animal control, but that's not even a guarantee that the goose would be put down before it suffered for a long time. The kindest thing would have been to go back and whack the goose in the head with a shovel until it was dead, but then the OP really would have been ridden out on a rail by her "compassionate" neighbors.[/quote]

Actually OP’s neighbors might have approved the home-made euthanasia.

Your distinction between pets and wild animals doesn’t make sense. I have a parrot (half-blind before you go off on me) and I know all birds are sentient and seem to have emotions. They can all certainly feel pain. Biologists are moving off the “only humans have feelings” paradigm. [/quote]
