I'm just courious....how is dancing abusive?
How do you think they dance?

Except from a site dedicated to dancing bears:

----
One of the most horrible forms of animal torture are the dancing bears of India.

These native Sloth bear cubs are captured from their homes in the wild, their mothers killed.

Every captured cub must undergo the painful ordeal of having its sensitive muzzle pierced so that it can be controlled. It is held down without anaesthetic while a crude iron needle is heated in a coal fire and plunged in with a group of men holding the squealing cub tight.
The tug of this rope, along with an intense fear of the strike of a heavy stick, motivates the bear to lift its legs in turn and 'dance'.

Before it is a year old, the bear's incisors and canine teeth will be wrenched out and sold as lucky charms. The toothless bear is unable to eat its natural diet, and this often leads to terminal intestinal disorders.
This cruel fate happens to an estimated 1,200 of these adorable bear cubs each year. The poor animals live short lives of pain, misery, and premature death

See how cruel humans can be for entertainment value?

What? you kiddin me right? I am from India.

I have never seen a bear ever, save a dancing one.

Maybe you are talking about the monkeys and the snakes.

They do some really nasty things to them.

You wanna know wat?

here are a few examples:

1) they do some nasty things to the monkeys to instill fear...you may guess what.
2) they force the snake on a vegetarian diet. (most Indians are vegetarian)

PM me, if u'd wanna know some more. and a lot more animal torchures are kinda prevalent here. I'll be glad to enlighten you.

a note: I wan the first and the youngest drop-out of the People for animals thing here in New Delhi (vity of 13 million).

*ok not proud*

O yes, and i make a healthy mixture of all the expired medicines and feed it to the street dogs, and throw them from the first floor.

this makes them tougher.

i thought you meant the actual dancing part. what they do to elephants in Thailand is equally horrible.That's pretty horrible but i don't think they do anything like that in america.

Thank God you are not in India.
There are tons of abandoned animals here, and if anyone found out about your deeds with the cat and the other animal, surely you would have one at the least non-sense useless homeless abandoned pet at your doorstep everyday.
