An excellent article in the Animal People News that I would like highlight here as a link:

Death by economics
Guest Column by Melanie Jackson

http://animalpeoplenews.org/07/11/deathbyeconomics11_07.html

The article closes with this important notion:

'If we were truly humane, we would value each life. The shelter I worked with proved that almost every animal could find a home. Some just took longer than others.' - Melanie Jackson, of Oakwood, Ontario, is an educator, animal welfare activist, speaker and freelance writer.
