Animal cruelty takes many forms

Posted by Eric @ 3:49 PM

Between the e-mails and newsletters I receive, and the RSS feeds and key word alerts that I monitor, I am exposed to a mind-numbing amount of cruelty every day. I don't share a lot of it here, because there's not much more to say once you've said it, and frankly it would be too depressing.

But it occurred to me to juxtapose a couple of stories that might seem different to some people, while both portraying the same fundamental cruelty toward innocent animals. The only superficial difference is that a sales demonstration could coldly be labeled as useful for humans, while burying a dog alive can't even dredge up that much of an excuse.

NBC15 (Pensacola): Dog is buried alive, but survives
The Scientist: Dog sacrificed for sales demonstration
