[QUOTE="Rs50matt, post: 145817, member: 27872"] I think with insects having such short life cycles in general it's not so bad to use them as feeders. I'm sure it happens in the wild but you wouldn't put a smaller t in as a feeder so I see no reason to use a live mouse other than to watch it fight and suffer. With falconry I think it's as quick and Humane as possible and a reasonable way of controlling pests. On the flip side to that you have fox hunting where they chase a fox to an inch of its life then have it torn apart by a pack of dogs. That's an unnecessary way to control a pest and is cruel as it gets [/QUOTE]
