    Yes, but if we can save only one life (even if it is a wild animal), don't you think it is worth it? I know Barry would agree with me. ;)

    what lives must die.

    I am not going to risk my life trying to swerve to avoid a squirrel or turtle in the middle of a road.

    I won't go gunning for them either at the same time.

    I brake for cats and dogs. I wouldn't swerve to avoid hitting my own mother.
