Seriously, our local animal shelter is even worse. My posbreastion is I would hunt then humanely kill the animal *but* only if using for food. A few years back and in a different house where we heated with wood a squirrel somehow got into the wood burning stove. We were frantic and called animal control because it was apparent the animal was suffering. Their solution - leave it there until it dies then remove it. It took 2 days for the poor thing to actually die. I'm very pragmatic and follow the law of the farm which is why this rabbit is gone. Our animal shelter is a joke! It is now charging people $50 to drop off an animal. The result is, and we are in a rural setting, people dropping of animals they don't want on our front lawn. People here are really getting ticked off because the animal shelter is a half hour away and they have to pay so many have just decided trapping and releasing (a finable offense) or trapping and killing are better than taking the animal to the shelter. I'm not making the rules and that's the reality of the situation here. Some animals have bounties on them so shoot to kill whether it is humane or not. I think a lot of city folk or vegetarian just don't understand what others are dealing with.
