There is no need for wasting these creature's lives. And they do feel considerabl pain and stress through the whole ordeal. Please consider a more human option for to replace this practice!

My first encounter of these poor fish was down the street in Cork. What looked to be a 13 year old girl was swinging around a goldfish in a plastic travel container with maybe 2" of water in it. That fish will be dead within the week because of the small amount of water and the lack of filtration. Not only is that in humane to the fish, but it's a sure way to teach your 7 year old about death early on. Fish need to be kept in a tank, with a filtration system. A small plastic transport carrier is not sufficient for any animal to live in. Please do not accept goldfish or any other animal as a prize. Stick to the stuffed animals.

I am so sad to see live animals handed out as prizes. Whats even worse is these fish are dying within days, probably due to shock as it is extremely stressful to go through something like this. Keep teddys as prizes. Leave fish in the ocean as we exploit them enough as it is.
