I work with a lot of injured wildlife. Also not wild animals that are just in a lot of pain. Sometimes I have to euthanize them. I decided to record each animal I euthanize here.

a Pacman frog with a proplapsed anus.
An emaciated ferret who had been fighting an auto-immune disease.
I appreciate the way this blog is written. This kind of thing could very easily become overly dramatic, but you manage to record each account without coming across as sappy (or callous, for that matter).
There are people who are outraged at the ending of a life, but it’s clear that euthanasia is the most humane option when the alternative is an inevitable and often painful death.

What is a pacman frog? an animal named after a video game? I had to look this up and now I want one, even if they are predisposed to prolapsed ani.
