Dogfighting is only wrong because dogs are "useful"?
So you'd be in favor of mountain lion fighting?
Dogs are also overabundant and breed easily. There are
plenty of useless and unwanted dogs put to death everyday.
Why not use them for sport hunting?
Useful is a relative term. Mountain lions are vital to
maintaining the natural California ecosystem. Sure, they
may not be useful in the short term economic sense, but when
did that decide policy?
