I wouldn't disagree with that but as a society we are judged on how we treat those weaker and less able than us, for me that includes animals. Anything that is capable of suffering is deserving of help if needed.

Are the slugs that ate my dahlias and runner beans capable of suffering. I do hope so

No, just let them have access to a quantity of cheap lager and they'll die happy...

or let the hens have them... that keeps the hens happy!

I had 2 ducks once which kept the garden slug free but killed the fish in the pond by polluting the water. A fox then ate the ducks. Funny old world!

are the dahlias and runner beans capable of suffering? if so the naughty slugs need to be punished

jammy buggers in my garden get 'punished' by having to drown in a pot of beer
