Maybe is because she doen't want them. It is any better than sending the animal to the SPCA to get kill?
I agree what the girl did isn't a pleasant thing and there maybe good home for those puppies. But I can't understand how you guys freak out over a few puppies, but it is okay that you guys supports American that travel over seas to kill people.
If you are to be killed, how would you like the death served?
Quick and painless? Or long and excruciating?
Does this concept
really confuse you all that much?
There was a "controversial" case earlier here in my hometown, where a man shot his dog because the dog became violent and could not be trusted. Whether the story is true or not, untrustworthy animals or animals in severe distress deserve a quick death - problem is, apparently doing it yourself in the city is definitely a big no no. Also doesn't help that he failed to kill the dog, despite shooting it 6 times - which turns into an even worse situation.
As for hunting, the whole point of hunting laws and provisions is to protect the victims (wild game) from unnecessary suffering. The goal is a good shot that brings a quick death - when animals suffer due to bad attempts or illegal methods of hunting, the Game authorities bring some fierce heat to the hunter.
In case you can't comprehend - if you are going to kill an animal, don't make it suffer. Snap the neck, cut the throat, shoot the heart... head shots aren't a good idea most often, most wild game have large domes but fairly small brain cavities - you miss the important part of the brain that houses the autonomic functions, you're then causing unnecessary suffering.
But throwing an animal into a river to drown? Yeah, that's not fast, and you're making them stress to survive - and all for your personal enjoyment/entertainment?
And actually, many hunters
do eat what they kill... it's more common than prize hunting.
And prize hunting is also typically done during specific seasons... in the name of local animal population control.. so it's justified to simply hunt for sport and sport alone.
But still, getting wild game to eat is often the goal. Or if you only seek to bag a carcass, selling it for meat is a rather typical route taken.
Healthy wild game is also far better meat - the opinion of the flavor may differ, but nutritionally, it is better than mega-farm meat. Though perfect comparisons just aren't possible, since their aren't many wild bovines, and the wild creatures of the bovine family are very different from the species we raise for milk or meat.
And most other species that are hunted just aren't commonly farmed to begin with.
