Sick to my stomach.
I've seen a lot of cruel and unusual things in my life, but THIS was cruel, pointless, AND gross.
I'm actually mad. Furious. Pissed.
IS.
IT.
NECESSARY. ??????? <---- THATS the question. (I already know the answer)
So, I went to the MN State Fair Today and was looking forward to my vegan endeavors in the midst of the carnivore nation. I was content doing my own searching and seeking out the secretly vegan items at the various food joints. I ate deep fried pickles, cotton candy, fresh fries, vegetarian spring rolls, falafa.... it was fabulous! I feel like violet from charlie in the chocolate factory now, but it was totally worth it! Especially for those deep fried pickles with hot sauce!
After getting my food kick, I decided to take a gander over to the art building to take a look at the amazing art that people entered into the fair. I saw awesome paintings, portraits, and unique abstract art.... and then I saw it. I saw the thing that took my breath away. Literally, I couldn't breathe because I was utterly disgusted. Yep, you heard it right.... I was disgusted by art. Here is what I saw.
Tons of rodents.
Dead rodents.
They were hunted (obviously not for food), skinned, and plastered onto a canvas.
Taxidermy after hunting is one thing.. and something that I can at least wrap my mind around if done after using the animal for food.. but THIS WAS WRONG. It was ugly and wasteful. What do you think of it?
