Bear-Baiting

My friend Glen, who is a member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, was telling me about how bear-baiting was popular in some middle eastern counties. They take a bear, remove it's teeth, and put it in a pit with a bunch of dogs who proceed to kill it.

"Outrageous", I said. "They should let the bear keep his teeth. Then it could kill all the dogs. That's much more ethical."

Glen hasn't spoken to me since.

You just can't please some people.

JD Times does not condone or encourage bear-baiting or the mistreatment of dogs or any other animals except pigeons, those filthy scavengers.

No animals were harmed in the writing of this blog.
