Do crabs feel pain?
Nov 20^th, 2021 at 1:14pm

Quote:

Can crabs and lobsters feel pain and joy? British government says ‘yes’

London: Britain is one step closer to banning the boiling alive of crabs and lobsters after the government agreed that they can feel pain and joy.

Campaigners hailed the decision as “groundbreaking” and predicted it would have ramifications across the globe as they fight for an end to boiling crustaceans alive.

Suck on that, leftards.

Nah - a mere student neophyte asking basic questions.... hardly an expert... No good lifting up his balls, Karnie's crabs jump six foot walls.

Grappler's crabs are domesticated and are more likely to themselves suffer itches from the presence of Grappler.

Aha. Just as I expected.

Grappler? Laugh says you never planned to take a Boong yabbying at all, you planned to ask Valkie.

Unless - oh my, it's not possible, surely. Valkie's a dirty Boong?

Grappler, what say you?
