Ya, I know what you mean, shar...and I am sorry if I came across in a hostile manner in my post. It's just this is an issue that came up with me lately, as a friend of mine is very actively involved in PETA. I am not against what they do, and believe me I love animals as much as humans (my dog is like my little child to me!).
Believe me...I think it is very inhumane with keeping beautiful sea cratures locked in small tubs for human 'entertainment'...and the way they slaughter dolphins because it is considered a 'delicacy'.
I agree with you...there is a dire ethical need for both issues. I guess my faith in humans has dwindled, because I feel it seems to take such a long time for us to stop hurting, killing, each other as well as animals.
Anyhow...thanks for the good post..
Jay
