    I know that it might sound a little morbid, but do some people want to see carnage? You just have to listen to the cheering at car racing when there is a smash, Eerie. Then there is boxing, bear bating, bull fighting, dog fighting etc.

    Because it's better than speaking through their behinds I suppose.

    My mates went and seen a man wrestle a bear in Bulgaria, they said it was one of the best things they've seen. I wish I had been to see it.

    They must've put a muzzle on it and covered its claws, otherwise it would've killed him. Unless you mean he wrestled a Rangers fan...

    They pull out the bear's teeth and claws (without anaesthetic) and beat it till it's submissive.

    Makes you proud to be human eh? :emoticon-0106-cryin

    If a horse ever got the chance it would eat you and everyone you cared about.

    It's hard to believe they still get up to this kind of ****. It's even the national sport in Spain FFS.

    With at least another 15 animals losing their lives on the race tracks of the UK this month, is it time to finally pull the plug on jump racing? I'm a fan of the "sport," but I have to admit to feeling more than a little uneasy about the whole thing.

    Donkeys get all the attention and the money, don't really know why though, must be eeyore related.

    Watching horses fall after a jump is a horrible sight, don't think we should still have sports in which animals die or cripple themselves on TV.

    But it just seems to hang on Toby. Don't know if it will ever be banned. But a lot end up on dinner plates in France. The numbers of deaths that can be recorded, because the sport is open, it seems, is small in number compared to the amount that die because of injury in training, or because that couldn't run out of sight on a dark night.

    Fox hunting is the one that really gets to me, pretending to ban it was ridiculous. No one really seems to know where they stand on animal rights in this country, people hate on battery farms and want everything to be organic, but at the same time expect to eat meat every day.

    I'm one of those annoying, dare I say it, hippy-minded people that believes in animal rights, cows may look a bit thick but stopmeandslapme has rights, how is that fair? Been a vegetarian all my life, wish more people would make the same decision...

    At least the French don't mess about, they'd eat anything that has 4 legs.
