continuing on the tags on the last post, the idea of loving the thing that will one day eat you because it has spent your whole life feeding and caring for you is so important to me
#tbh this ties into why i’m pro lab animals#an animal’s purpose is to do what it’s instincts tell it to do#in domesticating animals we are changing their purpose#therefore the animal becomes our responsibility#a wild mouse’s purpose is to be a mouse but when we domesticate wild mice and/or change them artificially#their purpose is no longer to be mice it becomes whatever we change it to be#a mouse modified for cancer research’s purpose is to be used in cancer research#it would be wrong to allow it to run wild because then it would die without fulfilling its purpose#(potentially horribly dying of cancer or predation)#a wolf’s purpose is to be a wolf but a terrier’s purpose is to hunt small game#for humans#if we let a terrier run wild it would not be a wolf it would just die without hunting small game for humans#anyways that’s my two cents
