Re: Killing fish humanely

["Yvan Alleau" <yalleau@OCE.ORST.EDU>]

john point of view is interesting and sounds more natural. I agree with it
except that it implies that we all need a big guy in a big tank to do the
job.
>From my past experience i would like to add that when i went to see several
wholesaler in Frnace, most of them had a pool with turtle or very big fish
who they give the dead, injured, sick fish to. Now, is that "human" and
painless to have your fish being eaten alive by other? Well, it's natural !
Thus hiting your fish to end its days is also fater and less stressful and
painful then the eating stuff.
