“There is an immense trout in Loch Awe in Scotland, which is so voracious, and swallows his own species with such avidity, that he has obtained the name 'Salmo Ferox'. I pull about this unnatural monster till he is tired, land him, and administer the coup de grace. Is this cruel?

“I am almost certain fishermen posess a peculiar bend to their makeup. Fisherman are optimists, and the fish in the future is always preferable to the fish at hand. Even the best fishermen catch fish only a small percentage of the time, which means we persevere in a sport that features failure as its main ingredient. Truly great days, when the fish hammer the fly as soon as it lands on the water are rare.” MeanHandsCertainSportsWaterSeaLandRiversFishesBoatFeaturesLakesFishingMakeupIngredientsPeculiarOptimistHammersPercentagesPersevereFishermanGreat Day Author:Joseph Monninger

“Today's fishing industry supplies land farms with fish as well. Over fifty percent of the fish caught is fed to livestock on factory farms and "regular" farms. It is an ingredient in the enriched "feed meal" fed to livestock. Farm animals, like cows, who by nature are vegans, are routinely force-fed fish as well as the flesh, blood, and manure of other animals. It may take sixteen pounds of grain to make one pound of beef, but it also takes one hundred pounds of fish to make that one pound of beef.” WellsMayTodayForceAnimalBloodLandIndustryPercentHundredCaughtFishesFleshMealsFiftyFishingPoundsFedsIngredientsFarmsVeganFactoriesCowsGrainSuppliesSixteenBeefManureLivestock Author:Sharon Gannon
