CALGARY, Alberta -- You've heard of Jello shots, but how about goldfish shots?
Canadian animal welfare officials say they're investigating a bizarre complaint about people drinking live goldfish, swimming in a glass full of booze.
Cheryl Wallach, a spokeswoman for the Calgary Humane Society, said a downtown restaurant and bar was apparently handing out the goldfish shots. Wallach said people do a lot of crazy things with animals, but this is a first.
Investigators will look into whether the goldfish shot incident actually occurred and whether the fish suffered.
A manager at the restaurant said it's something they've always done, but isn't providing any more details.
What about a worm's rights when it is placed in a Tequila bottle?
Good point.
I think it's ridiculous. You can't tell me that goldfish are intelligent creatures. I think they have a memory of about 3 -5 seconds so I don't think they mind. Even if they are "suffering" by the time they've remembered, they've almost forgoten again.

I wouldn't really agree here... but the question is who would want to drink a goldfish in the first place.
I never paid much attention, guess I shoulda known
every far away country is somebody's home
empires rise and empires fall
the world is big enough, there should be room for us all
who are they and why do they hate us?
