    Kind of a weird question IMO. I don’t even think animal lives are worth the same as animal lives. Is a single deer’s life the same as a single ant’s life?

    I consider myself to be kind and thoughtful towards people and animals – I’ll save snails or worms that I find while gardening, but I also will kill mosquitos that are inside my house, and move spiders outside where they will potentially die.

    This isn’t even getting into “special” animals like pets

      huh, i just let the spiders be and they take out mosquitos and other bugs for me. we’re symbiotico, that way.
