Taming and selling of animals

Dear Sir,
I understand your concern but fail to see how some who are taming
animals are thus ultimately by your words harming Nature.


I can honestly say I do not know many tamers, nor ones who sell animals
but I know one or two and of those that I do know is why I speak now.

These tamers befriend, not lasso. They then feed and train the animal
and keep safe shelter to them. Often tending and checking on them.
Whether to say putting a price on an animal's head is right or wrong I
leave for debate but the ones I know who charge a small price to sell
such a pet comes about after a process of time. Training, feeding,
kennel/stable fees, making sure the owner is responsible and willing to
take up their our time for fees, etc.

Often it is not for profit but the desire to bring a union between an
animal and a mortal. I would rather purchase a pet from someone who so
took the time to make a proper match, was well educated on their
abilities and able to train myself for example to take a pet than
someone who just had half willy nilly a piece of rope and out to strange
hold a beast into submission.

So before you suggest that they bow to you why don't you look for those
that have no regard for the wildlife, those that destroy it by animal or
plant. Unless you are speaking of some ill tamers the ones I have met
have always been knowledgeable, friendly, patient and cautionary even
putting always the animal first and not the gold that you seem to think
lures them into the reason they take their ability and bring it to the
public.

Obviously, I would not wish any creature to be harmed or ill treated and
for that I applaud your post but you seem to have just waved your hand
in generalism and made such threats that I am alarmed.

Know thy tamer, know thy animal, if they bring a union that brings
happiness to both someone caring for an animal I see no harm to the
Wilds.

Humbly,
Zyta
