As for mice vs dogs, the laws do differentiate between different species. A mouse falls very low on the food chain, into the section we consider nuisance and or food. A mouse is a naturally occuring food source for a snake.

A puppy is a natural occuring food source for a boa constrictor (if he’s big enough). Hell, humans are a naturally occuring food source for boa constrictors. Just ask dude in the Amazon. Or Ice Cube.

Dogs on the other hand, are a protected species. They are not legal for human or any other consumption. The domesticated dog does not appear anywhere in nature, and is not a natural food source for any species.

Who is to say what is legal for an animal’s consumption? Boa Constrictors gotta eat too you know. Last I checked nature didn’t follow man made laws. Chaos Rules, and nature will find a way. 🙂

but you’d feed a rabbit to a snake? Even if you own it? Or a cute little white mouse, or a big rat to a snake? Even if you own it? :uhh:
