Closed Outlaw the trade of 'live food' in pet stores in the UK

Closed on

I have seen pet stores selling 'live food' stacked up for sale. I think this is unfair on these creatures (eg. crickets), which can be in tiny boxes for days / hours and then be fed live to another animal. I'm disturbed that this cruel trade is still allowed.
