Do we have the right to put down ill animals but not humans?   stance: animals cant speak, they cant decide if they want to stay alive.:
we r not talking about killing for fun rather about putting the animal out of its misery so ur argumnt isnt relevant. what we are saying is wirh animals it isnot worth much to put a sick animal through an ordeal just so its mate wont pine for it . with humans the case is different. besides the emotional trauma which is much more complex in a human than in an animal seeing as we r much more complex beings , humans bear a responsibility to those around them their wives n especially kids who depend on parents not only for food but for education among other numerous things. reptiles on the other hand desert their offspring as soon as the eggs hatch. a snake will eat its own eggs if it cant find the food.
