Bringing back a large species that went extinct by our hands into a climate it isn't built for is a new kind of cruelty we can add to our list.

Cruelcruelcrueltycruel. Please stop flashing the cruelty card here. Is ridiculous

Being alive is better than not being alive, right?. Even if you experience pain or feel bored. Every animal experiences pain somewhere. Is fine. Is a part of having evolved pain receptors. Those receptors are here for our well-being and safety.

There is nothing special about pain. Is part of our biology.

We have methods to alleviate the pain at birth, why just assume that veterinarians will not use the tools that they have? because vets-bad-duh?

All this pseudo-religious movements that say that all pain must be eliminated at any cost seem totally unhinged. They made promises that can't be fulfilled and they know it.
