No, just no. Leave nature the way it's supposed to be, free in the wild.

I'm sorry, it's a living creature. It needs more resources than can be contained in that tiny package.


Not to mention it could get bumped, dropped, or squished and that would be it for it.

and I'm sure those that bought said keychain would probably be more pissed that their purse or pocket got soaked if it popped or had a leak.

But yea since this stand is in China it doesn't surprise me, but I still don't like it, poor animals.

That's... horrible. D:
The only way I would ever buy something like that is if I took it somewhere and immediately cut the animal(s) from the packaging. Poor things. =(

Oh wow, that's pretty awful. It doesn't matter if they have enough oxygen and nutrients, they need space to live!

This is ******** horrible :/

I'm feeling this desperate need to just reach in through the computer and cut every single one of those things open back in the water.

I am so pissed.

Poor animals.

Goldfish are already easily killed. The one my friend won me got pretty bad really fast. And I know the book I read where a drag queen would put goldfish and water in these inflatable "boobs" on his outfits for the night mentioned the fish dying every few days or a week.

Poor animals : |
How the ******** believes that they are going to have a normal life inside something like that?
It's sad and stupid.

And, ok, besides the horrible cruelty of it all (which is pretty damn close to sending me rage!blind) who in their right mind puts something called a giant salamander in a teeny little container like that? scream Are they just that stupid[/i}?
