While some are totally against breeding of many common species, some will argue that there are responsible breeders. When those who do choose to breed, but do it as repsonsibly as possible also rescue, they are helping out the species as well. One wrong, to those that believe that any breeding of particular species is in fact a wrong, does not cross out a right,imho. Most people on here will have different opinions, to each their own. |
What kind of animals - those that we keep as pets - do you think need breeding in order to help out the species? If there are animals of a particular kind being sold in pet stores, I'm fairly certain I can find some that need new homes in that area as well.
