[i]"(CNN)A 9-week-old rabbit was killed during a live radio show in Denmark to highlight the "vast hypocrisy" of people when it comes to animal welfare, Radio24syv said in a statement on their website.
"It was not just a joke, killing the rabbit and throwing it out; it was eaten," Jorgen Ramskov, managing director and chief editor at the station based in Copenhagen, the country's capital, told CNN.
"The radio presenter [Asger Juhl] grew up on a farm and he had some very detailed instructions from a person working at a zoo who kills rabbits for food for animals at the zoo, and he killed the rabbit." He also said the discussion with Aalborg Zoo from the same city was aired on the show before the rabbit was killed.
"When you hit the rabbit at the neck with a stick, it's not killed, it's just getting unconscious and then you kill it by twisting the neck. That's how you do it and that's how it was explained by the person at the zoo"[/I
gosh wonder if animal cruelty (especially publicly flaunted animal cruelty!) is an imprisonable offense like it here in many of the united state; just a couple ple months ago a 30yo Alabama man was sentenced to 99 yrs in prison 'just' for 'neglecting' and thus allowing to 'starve' some collies on his grandparents' property!

hmm, uhh would u rather starve to death or beaten to death; which would be more cruel if either?
well in either case; do u believe Danish man should be punished for this publicly flaunted clubbing of a *pet* rabbit to death to somehow demonstrate *farmed* rabbits are perfectly edible thus there exists a hypocrisy or double standard, per his argument.
