Thanks for your response. However the recipe is still there, right now.

As is an article from yesterday about a Gazan man killed by a cow he was attempting to slaughter. Which includes text about so-called “humane” slaughter and a comment that “eating animals is human nature.”

All it takes is a little awareness to stop using and killing animals in ANY way.

You’ve definitely got a point Rena! But to be fair, that recipe was published a couple of years ago. I think we are all evolving 🙂

The fact that hunters are starting to get jail sentences is encouraging news. I have witnessed freezers stuffed full with decapitated porcupines, confiscated from illegal hunters by the Nature and Parks Authority.

Wild animals desperately need protection from humans, from outright killing, habitat invasion, and entrapment as pets or for zoos.

But what do I witness on this very page … a recipe for “Poussins Stuffed with Pine Nuts and Rice … a poussin in nothing more than a baby chicken, under a month old and hardly bigger than a man’s fist. Each one makes a serving.”

When will humans stop seeing animals, be they porcupines or chickens, as “servings?”
