Angry Too many pigs, too little space.

I was just looking on google to find out what breed (ex. I think a Shelty?) of pig I was looking at (I found on Petfinder.com) and somehow I ended up here. (It didn't really matter to me though, I was just curious) Link Removed. Please do not post links to breeder how-to sites

Anyways, when I found this I was extremely unimpressed. In the "for sale" section, it was basically like petfinder exept it didn't really have any rescues. In the link above, someone is selling guinea pigs for 15 dollars each. The pigs are living all cramped up in a small plastic container/box. They have no hidey houses, veggies, hay and I don't see a water bottle, but they probably have one. All the pigs look extremely unhealthy, greasy looking hair, and the red/white piggy looks deformed. (or something, maybe just skinny) Also, on the website in the "for sale" section they had exotic pets for sale. There were zebras for sale in Texas and California!! There was a guy in Arizona looking for a Bangel Tiger! I just thought I would bring this to everyones attention. I wanted to e-mail this uneducated person and tell them their wrong, but I am not a member, I wouldn't want to give them my e-mail address anyway, and I wouldn't want to feed the troll. ( I guess they would be considered a troll?) Well, I could go on about how bad this website is for letting people sell these poorly treated animals and exotic animals, so what does everyone else think about this? The rest of the website seems ok, but they shouldn't of included this "Pets for sale" section.

Re: Too many pigs, too little space.

Oh my gosh. Those pigs look so cute, too. That cage is SO small!
And I thought the Red/White one was deformed too, which scared the heck outta me.

Re: Too many pigs, too little space.

Please do not place links to breeding how-to sites. I had to remove the link.

I also had to unapprove your other post completely. I couldn't remove the links and not the pictures as well (copyright issues) and the link/s took me to breeder how-to and sales sites.
