How can you differenciate between a human killing an animal and a chimpanzee killing an animal.
Both do it for food, both do it for pleasure.

I didn't think you was having a go :)

Killing animals for food, i might not like it but they need to do it to survive, what i don't like is the killing of an animal just to be cruel or for the fun of it

Alot of animals, like lions and chimpanzees kill and "play" with the carcase, but don't eat it.

Dolphins do it to porpoises too

Yes but that is there natural instint they eat it in the end ? i'm saying it is not natural for a human to delibrately hurt an animal say for instance take a puppy and throw it out of a top floor flat which was in the paper a while back

Sorry, I added the dolphin bit while you were typing.
Dolphins will gang up and bully a porpoise, whacking it so hard it's thrown out of the water.
Eventually they kill the porpoise through physical attacks and exhaustion.
They don't eat the porpoise.

Chimpanzees will attack monkeys, beat them against trees or drop them from high branches, rip them limb from limb, but then not eat them.
Some have even started attacking and killing human babies in settlements near their habitat.

Yes but these are things out of our control there is nothing we can do to stop it. but there are things we can do to stop humans delibrately hurting animals for the sake of it or because they think it makes them look cool

I think the courts should be given more power, and use them for a change!

I have been disgusted at some of the things done by individuals to animals for nothing other than some sick perverted enjoyment.

Although I dont think owners can be blamed in every case for their dogs actions because they are a wild animal IMO. (The Dogs) I do not have dogs and I am not sticking up for the owners, I do have animals and they are spoilt and treated very well.

I think in some cases the owners should be put down :mad:

I agree - As you can see my wife and I strongly disagree with any animal being tortured or killed for the gratification of sick human beings.

Oh and Please ! dont get her started on dolphins :) We both love dolphins. We know a family that runs a marine park in Malta and we go and see our dolphins called Budvan and Paga everytime we get the chance.
