“A recent paper by Richard Topolski at George Regents University and colleagues, published in the journal Anthrozoös, demonstrates this human involvement with pets to a startling extent…
40% of respondents, including 46% of women, voted to save their dog over a foreign tourist [when they could only save one].”
That is really quite scary. How messed up do you have to be to save a dog’s life over a person’s? To let somebody’s father or sister or daughter die so that you can still have your dog. Among other things, how outrageously and abominably selfish is that? “Yes, I picked your father to die over my dog.” Or, “I know your daughter is dead. But I still have my dog!” And 40%?
What a horrible commentary on the society we live in.
