Finally, your suffering comes to an end.
To the government and forest officials- your delay in the implementation of an order caused an animal to suffer deeply.
To animal rights activists- the only thing you have, to free yourself of guilt and responsibility, is the thought that perhaps the delay had nothing to do with your demonstrations.
But one must be sure about the ideals and values one is fighting for.
So you must introspect a little, and ask yourself whether in your heart you really believe that camping next to her while she lay in pain, eased her suffering more than the act of mercy you were protesting against would have.
