Bear boxing in China....
The things some people go to for entertainment & the owners to earn money. They can't be right in the head!
What do you think of this story, regarding bears being forced to box each other, complete with boxing gloves & muzzles?

This cruelty to animals must stop!

Incidently are you not aware that it is most cruel to feed those strays abroad, because they become dependent on you and when all thee tourists have gone home they suffer. I have been told this by the inhabitants of most countries I have visited.
Regarding ELVIS68-: Horse Racing isn`t cruel, if a horse didn`t want to jump a fence, it wouldn`t
The times I have heard this old chestnut. If you was thundering down a course at an excessive speed and an obstacle suddenly appeared in your way, surely the sensible thing to do would be to jump over it, if at all possible.
Perhaps also, if the Bears didn't want to box they wouldn't.

Ha, ha, ha! I somehow thought you might be back AOG!
There was I, sitting here having a breather after doing some gardening & filling up the bird feeders, only to find I'm now being accused of being cruel for feeding stray cats!
Let me tell you AOG, I am not a cruel person for feeding the strays & some of our friends who own properties abroad, also do the same. If it gives them a bit of nourishment now & then, so be it.
If you or anyone else don't like it - then tough, we shall carry on regardless!
Have a nice evening & enjoy your dinner!

Back again to to make two replies, how dare you call Gromit and I brainless and of having little sense, sounds very much like a little old lady who has lost her argument.
Although you took the time to tell us that some of your friends who own properties abroad, and they also feed the stay cats is no defence whatsoever, they must be equally as batty as you, I still maintain it is not only cruel to the cats but also creates problems for the locals, do what you like in the UK but leave the locals to manage their cats .
You even admit feeding those tree rats (squirrels) don't you also realise that the Grey squirrel is causing much damage not only to the trees but also to property if they get in. Incidently they are also destroying our native Red Squirrels. I have both foxes and squirrlels in my garden and would never dream of feeding them.
Wild animals are quite able to fend for themselves without any help from you. Your pps is absolutely ridiculous stray people indeed.

Do you honestly think a half ton horse can be forced to run and jump by a 7 stone jockey?
Then what the hell is the point of having a jockey in the first place. Stick to you guitar mate, you wasn't very good at that either.

Hi AOG - Gromit's partner - getting good this innit?!
Me a batty little old lady eh? Ha, ha, ha! Sorry to disappoint, but only yesterday, I was told I only look in my mid 40's - hardly old I would say! I also swim over 30 lengths each time I go to the pool & can run up the stairs two at a time - can you?
Anyway - on the contrary - how dare your partner suggest that "You're wasting your time mate, you'd get more sense out of one of the Chinese Moon Bears". Hence my reply.
Do you honsestly think I'm gonna to sit back & take insults without retaliating - I've got a bit more fight in me than you think mate! Now as I said earleir, do run along & .........

I don't know why I bother, but here goes.
Me and anotheoldgit have sparred many times. I don't think we have really agreed on anything, ever. However, I have alway found him to be courteous, a good debater and he has never resorted to personal insults.
I think your accusation that he posts under more than one monicker is very wide of the mark. bThere is only one anotheoldgit.

Hello ELVIS68,
You claim to be an animal lover and against cruelty, I would be interested to hear your views on this link.

In my book, far worse that dressing a couple of bears up in trunks for the amusement of a few orientals.
