I don`t understand animal activists anyway,, and believe me I am an animal lover,, but can you imagine the world if all animals were turned loose to reproduce unchecked ?? They think everyone should be vegetarian or vegan but if they got their way,, there would be no vegetables left !! Believe me,, I know !! My six horses got into my garden one year !! Looked like elephants stampeded through it !! And I can assure you they were not hungry !! They have 30 acres of grass, we bale our own hay, and they are fed grain twice a day !!
