Animals Care More Than Some Moms

This would be funny if it wasn't such a sad representation of how some people lack compassion for babies. My Thursday post was about a mom who drowned her 4 month old baby and got off scott free. If it was a litter of puppies drowned, the uproar would have been thunderous. Here's another story about a mom who left her baby to die.

Abandoned Baby Kept Alive, Safe by Mother Dog and Her Brood

A newborn baby that was abandoned outdoors by her 14-year-old mother during the Argentina winter was found safe Thursday after being kept alive and warm by a mother dog and her brood of puppies, Reuters reported.

Farmer Fabio Anze found the naked baby near the city of La Plata, Argentina, lying amongst his dog China’s puppies. The baby was taken to the hospital after Anze called the authorities.

Hospital officials said the baby was only a few hours old when she was found, and was in good health despite several bruises.

Temperatures at night around La Plata, 40 miles south of Buenos Aires, this time of year are cold, but not freezing.

Police have located the 14-year-old mother. It is not known whether she left her baby in the dog's pen or whether the dog found the baby outdoors and carried it in to join her puppies, Reuters reported.


I can feel some sympathy because the mother was only 14, but it's sad that a mother dog cares more about a baby then the real human mother. A sad statement on our society and the eroding of families and family values.

Feminists will tell you that the baby should have been aborted, end of problem. When even a dog understands the meaning of life better than those so called women, you have to understand how low our society has sunk.

Hunter you are right about the outcry for puppies being killed would have been horrendous.

The microwaved cat in Red Deer, the dogs killed by their owner in Edm and left in the bush both generated stories and letters to the editor and protests and charges.

Funny how some human beings seem to value the life of animals over humans.

This story reminds me of a mother cat we once had and how she did everything to protect her young. Quite a remarkable thing to see. She would hiss and snarl, move those little kittens anytime she though she sensed any harm to her litter.

I automatically thought of us humans and how we allow harm to come to our unborn little ones everyday. How most don't do anything to protect those who are most vulnerable. I shook my head and questioned, why are we humans less civil and protective of our offspring especially that of our unborn than those creatures below us.
