today, i ended a life & witnessed the deaths of perhaps 40 others. i punctured the needle into the body, through the heart. i pushed the plunger on the syringe & the chemical seeped into the bloodstream. i watched. rapid breaths. a few seconds later, it began to slow down until... it stopped.
today, i ended a life of a rat.
many ppl wud tink, "it's just a rat." but who am i to decide that it's life shall end today. i am nobody, but a human.
today, approx 94 rats & mice died because of the workshop Veterinary Bioscience students attended.
many ppl wud tink, "they're just rodents". but who are we to decide that they're loves shall end today. we are nobodies, but humans.
euthanasia is part & parcel of becoming & being a vet. i have to do it, but it doesn't mean i have to lyk it.
euthanasia is considered humane. after undergoing much probing, being experimented on, being sampled, animals are then put to sleep & dissected for further examination. humane, indeed.
the next tym i pop a panadol down my throat whenever i'm having a headache, i'll always think about the number of mice or rats that died, just so i'd be able to consume an aspirin which results in no adverse side effects & rapid relief from discomfort.
we rule the world we live in, deemed superior than god's other creations. we are not god, but we control life & death. we are humans.
