| Topic | Fun fact: Rabbits are classified as birds in the United States |
| Bad_Mojo 05/02/23 8:48:37 PM #8: | "In the United States, rabbits are classified as birds. Yes, birds. Since chickens and turkeys are excluded from the two federal laws offering minimal protection to farmed animals, so are rabbits. The most important one, the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act, requires protected species be rendered insensible to pain before being killed. The law excludes birds and rabbits, meaning more than 90% of all animals slaughtered in the United States are often killed fully conscious. To be clear, there is no kind way to kill someone who wants to live and even protected species face horrific treatment and a needless death at the slaughterhouse. And while some states do mandate inspection of dead rabbits, live rabbits are routinely handled and killed in heinous manners." https://animalplace.org/the-bunnies-of-the-bird-world/ --- https://i.imgtc.com/hQ5SuG6.gif https://i.imgtc.com/QrhAq36.gif https://i.imgtc.com/Yjov9DU.gif ...
