Time to hunt the peeps who did this, and do to them 100x worse. Sick pieces of crap.

Apparently, someone tied the legs of the iguana in order to sell him, and then abandoned him.

@viper69 Do yourself a favor and never visit the live animal markets in the 3rd world.
Or the dead ones for that matter. Circa 1940 Shanghai China. Always leave a foot on the animal being sold so you can tell what it was.

How sad........I don't care what type of animal it is, even cats, there is no reason to do this to any animal......I'm looking at you too China and the screwed up markets you have. Eat like normal people.

Normal people based on western standards? I am a nurse and at one point in my career I worked at a small town hospital here in Texas. They thought I was disgusting for bringing/eating shrimp for lunch!

 

[Arachnophobphile]

Normal people based on normal food.

Normal is a relative term. Pork blood is probably not considered normal food here. But I grew up in the Philippines and that was normal food for us. My Grandma used to tell me that because Philippines was not a rich country, and pork was expensive, people will make use of all parts to make food, blood, bones, inner organs. Majority of people here throw those stuff away.

Read this link, I bet you would not eat any of this as it's abnormal food.

Top 10 Disgusting Foods - Listverse

WARNING: This post contains disturbing images. Around the world today, people of all races and creeds eat some of the most disgusting things you can

I understand it is disgusting, but it is normal for them. Number 10. balut is a normal Filipino dish too. I have eaten sheep penis, bird's nest soup, tuna eyeballs, century eggs and chicken testicles too! Like I said, a lot of it stems from culture, lack of resources, superstition and etc. And as I mentioned earlier normal is a relative term. Remember China has 1 billion+ people vs 300 million+ in the USA, and 1 billion+ people think it is normal.

So it's ok if cannibals eat humans like in some countries?

This is the logic you're using.

All I'm saying there's fish in the water, mammals for meat on land and birds in the trees. It's choice and if people live where these things cannot be found then they need to move where the food is

You do know I'm just playing with you? I do respect other cultures and the difference in what people eat.....but there is a line no one should cross.

Eat normal food! Like beef. Second to none in environmentally destructive foods.

 

[Arachnophobphile]

Beef..environmentally destructive??? That's a new one I never heard.

Have you tried a tasty hamburger or a delicious porter house steak?

I need to stop I made myself hungry now.

That has to be the best self own I have heard in decades.

@Arachnophobphile It takes over 1,000 lbs of human digestible plant protiens to produce 1 lb of beef. Go read up on the destruction of the Amazon rain forests to feed the north American glut for beef.

Lets be very clear about something here: wildlife trafficking, animal abuse, and the horrific conditions of the wildlife trade are NOT limited to West or East. At the beginning of the pandemic when everyone and their cat was blaming things on the wildlife trade in China, preciously few people were talking about the horrific conditions of industrial American agriculture or the fact that we are importing over 200 million live animals a year (and that's only the legal shipments) and only quarantining bats and non-human primates. The cultural issue is humanity's exploitative relationship with wildlife, not what citizens of one country eat in comparison to another.
I've eaten some crazy stuff in Latin America. I've eaten some crazier stuff in the US. I've seen animal abuse and trafficking on each of the three continents I've been on. The problem is the modern state of Homo sapiens, not any one culture.

Yes I looked into it......the U.S. stopped most of the beef and leather imported from farms in the Amazon in 2017. Yet Walmart is still importing meat from there...shameful.

Just another reason why I hate Walmart.

 

[goliathusdavid]

I do not eat beef from the Amazon nor do I live there. The beef I eat eats grass and alfalfa in the U.S. no destruction by cattle here.

Hate to break it to you but even beef you get in the US comes with a carbon cost. Now that's not to say it's not worth it, but unless you have more money than god or are a farmer yourself, a lot of the food you consume is gonna be environmentally destructive. PARTICULARLY cattle. I try to source beef from two farmer friends in Lancaster when I can, but even the most sustainable cattle still burps and farts so I don't eat it often. Cattle is a climate nightmare in case you are unaware. Though there are some pretty cool emission reduction ideas coming out of, wait for it, seaweed.
I'm not saying don't eat beef, but don't try to deny it's environmental impact either, regardless of your source.

I gave up eating beef when I got a dose of botulism from a McD burger. Think acute Covid that hits the stomach and intestines instead of the lungs.
Then I noticed a few changes and did a little research.
-About half the chronic acid reflux in the US coincidentally involves eating breads combined with primarily beef.
-Beef protein consumes more resources than the next 10 protein sources combined.
-The US eats 50 lbs of beef per year per capita.
-Nose to the tip of the tail. When they say 'all beef' hot dogs... At the slaughter house there is some person with a flat shovel getting everything except the bones into the grinder. The USDA allows no more than 6% filth in processed foods.
-Switching from beef to other protein sources in the US would provide enough surplus food to feed everyone on the planet several times over.
-Cattle production for US consumption requires over 80,000,000,000 (Eighty billion) gallons of water per year
-Plus deforestation for cattle feed plus a lot of global warming gasses.

But the most interesting thing I noticed is people who eat beef regularly have nasty body odor. If you don't eat beef at all and haven't for a couple of years, being in a closed in area with beef eaters is really rank. Breath, farts and body odor. When a load of US tourists gets in a public transport vehicle here, the locals often move away or get out and catch another ride. Most people don't eat beef in Asia. You can feed a family of four for a week for the price of a quality steak.
