    I think the most basic respect you can offer an animal is to just not kill it.

      That should apply to all living things. Kind of makes it hard to survive if we do that, though.

        Not really. Just like everything else it’s just a little bit of a learning curve. Then it becomes normal and easy.

        There’s a goldilocks zone where our own individual longevity can be met while simultaneously causing the least harm to all life, within practicality.
