Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

Genesis 1:26

I have never understood people who hurt animals for the sake of hurting them. It can never be justified and killing a creature that can be relocated is a waste of life. Surely we have no right to waste life?

Bless you for saving this life.
