ou..and animals are defenceless? go and say that steve erwin, or maybe "It has been estimated that 5 million snakebites occur worldwide each year, causing about 125,000 deaths." one of those 125 000 people - do they feel like its wrong to eat snakes and make boots out of them.
Animals held in cages are defenseless. The sting ray did not kill Steve Erwin to skin him and sell his fur. The sting ray did what wild animals do when people get too close for comfort: they defend themselves.

I can't tell if you are being serious about your argument (animals are animals, so there is no such thing as being cruel to them to get what we want from them) or are just playing devil's advocate.
