Animal Ethics

DECEMBER 24, 2006

On the blog Animal Ethics (which I visited because of your reference to it) is the sentence "Let us temporarily assume for the sake of argument that it would be permissible to eat the flesh of an animal who was raised humanely and killed entirely painlessly." Did you notice that "who" the writer slipped in there?

I suspect that many readers of this blog are Christians but not vegetarians. First, I will raise some questions that usually are not asked, let alone answered, by moral vegetarians. You should survive as best you can, and killing the birds and eating them is the only way, given the situation as described.

The starving young male had been rescued from the side of a road, recovered at my house, then went to my rehabber friend Lisa’s for live prey training, where he sharpened his skills until he was a mouse-killing machine. For a heart-stopping second he lost altitude, then he raised his wings and rocketed up toward the far trees.

Now, there is a new study that has significant advantages of the Bumpus study, though the latter will still be useful in teaching about evolution because of its limitations and the questions it raises. As you know, a lot of birds are killed in the U.S. If so, the frequency of road kill should decline over time.

Letters from Eden (Houghton Mifflin, 2006) will soon be followed by a memoir about the birds she has raised, healed, studied and followed throughout her life. Nobody needs to eat them.

Laysan albatrosses are ocean-dwelling seabirds who have 6-foot wingspans, weigh 7-8 pounds, occasionally sleep while flying, and rarely land except to raise their chicks. The oldest Laysan albatross was last seen raising a chick on Midway Atoll in 2016, at age 66. They are docile and devoted parents who will not leave their nests.

This week’s guest blog was written by Linda Hufford, who has been a wildlife rehabilitator specializing in raptors for over twenty years. The newest find of this extremely scarce bird was a male, and was “collected” (an innocent-sounding euphemism for “killed”) for the American Museum of Natural History. How it raised its chicks?

I haven't had time to blog--or even to work out daily like I used to--but that doesn't mean I don't read all my e-mails and go to every link everyone sends me. Trying to program kids to accept the killing of someone they love is cruel. Imagine if kids in 4-H were taught how to raise dogs for dogfighting (not a perfect analogy, I know).

For example, without this blog, would you know that the Barn Swallows of Nanhui are now having their own housing boom, ignorant of the overinvestment that has characterized China’s construction industry? As with Chinese male humans, having your own building is still vital to raising young. Yes, you do, trust me.
