Today i was weed whacking around my pond and as i was getting the outside of a muskrat den a bullfrog jumped out, hitting the weed whacker.  This caused the frog to lose its front left leg.

For awhile I thought of possible solutions. I could forget about it and let it suffer slowly til it dies. I could throw in the water, but it would drown due to a lack of a front leg.  It seemed the most humane thing i could do was to grab a gun and shoot it in the head to kill it; which i did.

As i watched to make sure it was dead i thought back several years to when i had just received my first BB gun.

I would walk around the pond and pretend to stalk the frogs. When i would find one, i would proceed to aim at it and shoot it.  I also did the same with birds.  

The thing is, when i did these things, i thought nothing of it.  Now i just killed a frog and it depresses the living hell out of me, the fact that i stole the life of another living thing.

Am i psychotic or have i indeed grown a little inside?

Aww that makes me feel so sad inside. I could never intentionally kill an animal, i'd try and make it as comfortable as possible and/or take it to a vet who can take care of it in a humane way.

Skin on the front leg was ripped off exposing part of the bone. It would of bled to death.

Arnt some animals grown without bones? I thought frogs didnt have bones, just like snakes.

I forgot the term for it though..
