The Lobster Quadrille

But what have lobsters got to do with climate change and dying trees??
Humans are stupid and cruel, that's what!
Here's a perfect example of totally unnecessary gruesome carnage, a slaughter in the name of a rite of passage - yes, it's yet another travesty that is excused in the name of cultural tradition:

Every year, on the Faroe Islands in an atmosphere of festival, the Calderon dolphin, as well as other types of dolphins and whales in danger of extinction are variously bludgeoned and stabbed.
This is purportedly to make men of young males.
The sea turns red for days as they bleed to death in the hundreds, crying in their pain.
If you want to add your name to a petition to stop this travesty, click here.

The best summation of the purpose of this blog is on the page linked to at the top, "Basic Premise" Beyond that, I post random thoughts and musings from Wit's End, a little farm I share with a dog, 2 indoor cats and 2 barn cats, a flying squirrel (Whippersnapper), Sun Conure (Bird), African Grey (Simon), a dozen chickens, a pair of peafowl, sundry koi in the pond, and various wildlife visitors, most notoriously among them, a voracious fox.
