Exactly. I remember the one great saying "In order to love all animals, we must let some go". Wich is 100% true. Its only natural for alot of animals to hunt and eat other animals, its like this year I will be getting a hawk from a rescue centre, he has a broken wing and if it dosent heal well he may never hunt again, dosent bother me. But I will try with all my heart and get him hunting again. Not for the reason I love the sport of hunting etc but for the fact it is natural for him, he will never be able to be released into the wild so I can just try and give him the most natural life possible. I can easily supply food for him but if he has it in him to hunt, its only his instinct, I am not going to stop feeding any of my carnivore animals meat. We rescued a ferret a while back that had been fed tofu and veggies because of his owners belief, there was nothing we could do to him, the damage was done he had to be put down. Through bad experiences I wil never feed a carnivore veggies and fruit or tofu etc. JMO
