Boiling water to dispatch rats?

Quote:
If it is any consolation, if you store the lobsters on ice or in the bottom of the refrigerator and than add them to the water only when it is at a full rolling boil, it stuns them.

So they say...if you ask me, it's just as cruel as what he wants to do with the rat. Only difference is ppl. are paying good money and eating the lobster.....life is cruel to animals if anyone wants to eat it...look at geese and how they choke food down their throats to get the foie gras, veal from the poor calf, etc...the list goes on and on.

What the ****?

I'm sure the RSPCA will be very interested to hear about this. Killing an animal such a way is illegal in Aus, how the HELL can you consider something so sick and sadistic??

Part of the rules for this section state:

*That being said, please do not gloat or suggest torturous ways of killing for pleasure or indeed, post in such a way that your predator control can be construed as pleasure killing instead of simply taking care of a problem.
