Re: London Olympics
Interesting the ebb and flow of how we value life, and the lines we draw.
Stray cats and dogs not so far back were fodder for most anything.
Today we have groups (in some countries) which trap, neuter, release and feed these animals.
And then there is the whim of those that watch that some endangered species isn't affected by some construction yet other construction goes forward willy nilly.
And then what of the animals that aren't endangered? Surely feral cats don't fall on this list, yet they do rise above voles, moles, mice, rabbits, birds, bats in regards to animals that we generally concern ourselves with in matters such as these.
