I don't care if this is a rural farming/ranching community where people hunt deer, etc.
Something is profoundly wrong here. Puppies are not food.

I bet his "science" class comes with a healthy dose of creationist bullshit as well. The humane thing would have been euthanasia. End of story.

"Two of the three kids present were mine," wrote one parent, Farahlyn Hansen, in a Facebook post supporting Crosland that has been shared more than 200 times. She did not respond to messages seeking comment.

"NONE of the kids were upset or traumatized," Hansen wrote. "They do not need counseling. They saw the physical state of the very young puppy. It was sick, wouldn't accept food, and was dying. All of the three kids that were there felt Robert did the humane and right thing. My children work on farms, they understand life and death."

Other petitioners also expressed their support for Crosland — a beloved teacher who had taught science to many of Preston's students — praising his character and skills as an educator.

"Four of my kids have had him for a science teacher," wrote Amanda Palmer. "They loved their science class, each having their own great experience with Mr. Crosland. I support him 100%. I hope that he will be here to teach my daughter next year."

determining what is ailing that pup and medically helping it and instead feeding it to a preditor, your country really is fucked.

You have a sick puppy, you take it to a vet and either treat it or have it euthanized. Feeding it to a snapping turtle is just plain sick.

Teaching children cruelty to animals is how you produce serial killers.

There's nothing "humane" about it being eaten alive by another animal, you dumb bastard.
