I had thought of "passive killing" (like the thawing of frozen embryos) but if you're going to kill the fish, make it quick and humane. Although I don't know how to kill a fish quickly and humanely, I don't think throwing them on the lawn would do it. Also, that would be littering.

But I think these solutions are against university policy - it does state that
Quote:
the university believes it is morally wrong to kill the animals simply because the experiment is over and you have no further use for the animal.
So arguing that the experiment is over won't work. As I read this small part, the regulations still govern what you do with the animals after the experiment.
Flaunting this may mean the university refusing to give her the degree.

Ali, does the DPI have a carp eradication program? can they step in here? "Here, give the little darlings to us, we'll give them a good home ... "
