I still do not believe the last 6 hours of life is worth torture of any kind. In fact, I would forego the last 6 hours of my own life to prevent any intelligent animal's torture. I say intelligent, because while I'm not sure about a turtle, or even a mouse, I am sure about dogs, cats, maybe a grizzly bear, etc. Intelligent enough to feel and possibly worry about the level of pain I assume you're referring to.

While I clearly have some logic problems, I do believe my answers and logic behind those answers have been consitent with this series of questions. I'm anxious to hear where you're going with this.
