The Legislature has simply chosen to
exclude ‘‘fowl’’ as animals warranting protection
under the applicable statute criminalizing
cruelty to animals. Such silence
cannot be construed to mean that cockfighting
has thereby been authorized by
the Legislature. The court of appeal
erred in holding that LA.REV.STAT.
§ 14:102.1(D) was amended in response to
a controversy surrounding cockfighting.
Savage v. Prator, 38,955 (La.App. 2 Cir.
10/6/04); 886 So.2d 523, 525, rehearing
denied 10/29/04. The legislative history
associated with the amendment reflects no
such controversy.2
2. In 1982, the Legislature revised former article
LA. REV. STAT. § 14:102, reenacted as LA.
REV.STAT. § 14:102.1 through LA.REV.STAT.
§ 14:102.5. During a committee meeting,
Representative Bruneau discussed Senate Bill
180 and explained ‘‘that the bill provided with
respect to the prohibition of cruelty to animals,
defines cruelty and provides penalties.
It also provided for seizure of cruelly treated
animals and for search warrants and other
methods of seeing that animals are properly
treated. He further explained that Louisiana
was known as a ‘dogfighting state’. Laws
have been passed in many other states similar
to Senate Bill 180.’’ Louisiana State Senate,
Committee on Administration of Criminal Justice,
Verbatim Minutes of Meeting, June 24,
1982.
During a May 18, 1982 committee meeting,
‘‘Senator Ginn moved that fighting cocks and
chickens be excluded from the penalties of
Senate Bill No. 180, and the suggested
amendment was adopted, without objection.’’
No additional statements were made with regard
to the exclusion or inclusion of fowl
under the provisions of the statute. Louisiana
State Senate, Committee on Judiciary, Section
C, Verbatim Minutes of Meeting, May 18,
1982. The final version of Acts 1982, No.
431, which became LA.REV.STAT. § 14:102.1(C)
stated, ‘‘This Section shall not apply to the
lawful hunting or trapping of wildlife as provided
by law, accepted veterinary practices
and activities carried on for scientific or medical
research governed by accepted standards.
For purposes of this Section, fowl shall not be
defined as animals.’’

as i have already pointed out in this thread, this is not an accurate picture of typical pig existence. in some way pets serve as a distraction from animal rights causes, because they allow us the fiction that domestic mammals typically have relationships with humans, or are allowed personalities, physical and mental activity, names, or other such luxuries.
i also eat wild turkeys because they too taste real good although the population management argument doesn't really sail with them but fuck it thanksgiving is coming
roseweird posted:isn't that because humans killed all the wolves in order to keep them away from animal farms though. what if you put the energy you use hunting into participating in animal rescue or something and helped to restore native predator populations
p sure there would need to be people doing both things since native pred. pop.z arent gonna come back as fast as deer are gonna multiply,.iimo~~~~~~~~~`````````

Sort of. In Virginia deer populations bottomed around 1900, long after the extirpation of wolves. Population increases since then have largely been by design.
Before humans arrived on the East Coast there weren't many white tailed deer here anyway. They prefer a matrix habitat of woodlands and meadows, which would hardly exist without human clearances.

yeah, the massive jump in deer populations has pretty much coincided with the decline in number of hunters.it's true that reintroducing predator populations will and is helping: the resurgent eastern coyote is known to take down small or injured deer. if gray and red wolves or cougars make a similar comeback the population in some areas might stay at a manageable level. the problem is that a lot of places where deer are endemic are not places where wolves or cougars could or should be re-introduced, e.g.more densely inhabited rural regions without large forested areas, not to mention suburban areas.
deer are arguably another periurban human commensal same as cockroaches, rats, mice, raccoons, and pigeons. they like the same habitats as we do.
