How is bestiality wrong, but killing animals for sport or trophies is considered okay?

As for using an animal for sexual gratification, I don’t believe forced sex is okay either, with humans or animals.

I have no problem with keeping pets, I have always had dogs and cats. I have no problem keeping them confined or on a leash (as long as that does not physically harm them), that is for their safety; and prolonging an enjoyable life.

In the event animals are to be killed, for food or safety, I believe it should be done as humanely as possible, with as little fear and awareness of danger/death by the animal as possible, with as little pain for the animal as possible. Sometimes, euthanasia is the proper moral choice for an animal that is only going to suffer until it dies anyway.

How would you feel if your friend confided in you that she is cheating on her husband, knowing that he loves her deeply? What emotional and ethical considerations would you grapple with in response to her revelation?

I don’t think any of that is okay.
