If we research how much pain, starvation, and other
discomfort animals suffer in the wild and require no better a
life for our domesticated animals we can save a lot of time
and money.
We is.

We could save even more by doing the same for
ourselves... |

... Is something about the word "domesticated" confusing ? |
|
| |
...Let me put it this way. If you do this, then your standards for housepet care go down to "ignore them" |
|
| |
"domesticated" means we take care of that shit, no? |
|
| |
But you'd be spending a lot of money on research, so that wouldn't save any money at all! |

The wild can be cruel to animals therefore this would only justify animal cruelty. |
|

Well this is dead wrong then. The index shouldn't be of wild living standards, but of domestic living standards. What's the worst conditions that humans can expect to live in? How filthy can the tenements become, and how quiet and how desperate? Domesticated animals need a basic standard somewhere on the scale of domesticity. |
