It's not a welcome phrase but how rescue places sometimes term it to shock people out of turning away. It's often a life and death situation for these creatures. Yes those animals are hard to look at as they are suffering and to the caring, we stick a finger in our own pain to bear it. I'm thankful some find homes and some few others a catch and release program.
