My youngest son's girlfriend, who I should mention is a rabid member of PETA, has a new rant: She feels that by ringing a bell everytime I feed my torts, so they come a-running to be fed, I'm exploiting them...that if I truly loved them for themselves, I wouldn't be "conditioning their responses"...
All this time I just thought I was letting them know I'd brought 'em dinner...
So, what's verdict: Is it exploitive to teach them when it's feeding time via a bell, whistle, etc?
BTW, you don't even want to know about the heated discussions about my family eating the venison, etc. from my hunting trips...
