The Aussies have gone bonkers!!!
How blooming ridiculous?!!
TV Celebrity pair in rat eating row - Yahoo! News UK
It was a rat!! Which I'm sure many homeowners would have gladly killed (albeit not eaten it!).
Stupid, just stupid. And people say we waste money in cases we sometimes decide to prosecute?!!!

I saw this and thought it was a joke at first but it seems serious,
So its ok for them to eat all the crap they do but they cant eat a rat, the celebs had to be desperate to want to eat it imo.

Didn't see the incident but did see others in the past eating live insects etc so what's the difference?
Life is too short to be worrying about a rats welfare

I think its the very notion that good australian rat should be wasted on these appaling lowlifes

I assume they didn't cook it alive ...? That'd be the only reason to do them for 'cruelty'.

They are being racist; Pommys did it, so they must pay.
If an ozzy ate a rat they'd wouldn't be bothered.

From what I read it has something to do with the fact that the rat was apparently tame, whereas all the other creatures were wild

A rat was tame?
I'm assuming it wasn't a pet one here.
I never watched that crap, too vile for me.

Well it used to be a case of,
"If it moves - shoot it!
If it doesn't - chop it down!"
I guess things must have moved on

if it was wild, the guy would have lost his fingers picking it up by the tail
i think the controversy is down to killing stuff in the name of telly. a pretty poor show to warrant killing innocent animals really.

But let's put it into perspective! They didn't kill the thing for the sake of killing something! They were hungry and killed it for food.
Is it really that much different from us killing sheep/cows etc so that we can eat them when we are hungry??!

If animals are not for eating then they wouldn't be made of meat
