I came across a pic like that quite a long time ago. It still haunts me. I can never seem to get pics out of my mind. I wandered around to some of the shelter websites around me a while ago...one had this wonderful description of their gas chamber and how long it takes the dogs to die. They say they can't afford to euthanize them with the needle.

Ugh, now more pictures are coming to my mind reading these posts. In AP Biology last year they gave us catalogs so we could order dead animals to disect (sp?). Luckily, it was by choice, not required. It did not only contain the ordinary frogs and squid, you could order a dead cat. There were photographs.

Candy, I agree with you. We DO live in a disposable society. It is very sad. A couple of years ago I was sent a link to a website on abortion. I wish I would have never went to it. Actually, I wish anyone who has ever even had the slightest thought abortion...would go there. Pictures really are worth a thousand words. Life is not something that should just be thrown away as common trash.

I live beneath some beautiful mountains, and when my friends and I decide to go geocaching, we wander through the foothills. An often used road ends up in them, near a trail up to the canyon. Off to the side in the once beautiful scenery...there are dead animals everywhere...deer mostly, although I did once run into a cat and horse skull. It is absolutely grotesque. The stench could kill you. And this is real close to some very expensive homes. After my mom talked to a couple of people, we found out this is kind of a road kill dump. Nothing official, I guess they just toss them there every once in a while. Yeah, that's REAL sanitary.
