Do you like to eat crabs? No, this post isn't about me eating crabs or how delicious they are. I recently came cross news about protecting crabs. Apparently, laws to protect animal generally only applies to vertebrate(don't throw away your bio just yet), but then there are moves to include the laws to crabs and lobsters as well(yup, the ones you eat at seafood restaurant) in the European countries. The reason for them to do so is because they found out that crabs have nervous system similar to us, so they deduce that they would experience pain as well.
Imagine when you boil the lobsters alive, they would scream like: OH~~ OH~~ my meat, my delicious meat is excruciatingly painful because of some ravenous human being who boiled me to fill their stomach!! So they think they can torture us like this just because they are some human being!! OH~~ OH~~ this is so inhumane and they still call themselves human being!! OH~~ OH~~ Can't they imagine the feeling of being boiled in such hot water of 100 degree celcius? Don't they have any intelligence at all and yet they still call themselves human being....
Ok, let's stop here. I'll leave the rest to your imagination but I guess you would have understand by now.=D But would a crab really experience pain just because they have the nervous system? Crabs can hear too, but do you REALLY think they know how to enjoy opera(by Sarah Brightman)? Some proposed that crab would not feel pain because their nervous system would fail at 25 degree celcius, so it would be a mistake to include them in the welfare laws. Well, what do you think?

The topic's forever debatable. If we were to protect every living thing on earth then what is there left to eat? No I shall never be an advocate of vegetarianism Vege gross! Plus, crab meat's too awesome to be missed. =D
crab is just crap!
they can be protecting crab's welfare but do so little for human welfare.
by the way, if they discover veges have nervous system how ar?
Jyo: though I agree that crab meat shouldn't be missed, the fact that you should eat more veggie is undebatable.
Tall: Maybe we'll all have to survive on health pills by that time... curse you, crab!
yeah, eat more veggie is undebatable...lol
