This whole argument reminds me of the man who asked a beautiful woman if she
would sleep with him for a $1,000,000 (maybe euros for you Steffen) and she
said yes of course! Then he asked her if she would sleep with him for $20. She
slapped him and said "What kind of woman do you think I am!"
His reply was "We've already established that, now we are negotiating the
price!"

The border between use and abuse was crossed many centuries ago. Now it's
just a matter of deciding which animals can still be used without causing their
extinction.
