At almost every fair in America, you can find at least one carnival style game where the prize is a live fish for you to take home and care for. But the problem is, most of those fish never make it home once they're won. Children will shake them or take them on rides, adults will accidentaly drop them or bump them into another person. Most of these fish die a painful death! The ones that do make it home, usually don't go to a good one. People aren't prepared to have the responsibility of caring for the living creature; they aren't ready for it. Stop the harsh ways of these carnival games and put an end to fish prizes. This is animal cruelty and it must be stopped. Thank you for your time; we appreciate it.
I truly never imagined that so many people would care about this issue. Seeing this groundswell of support is honestly overwhelming and it belongs entirely to all of you who chose to speak up.

so cruel. no one is prepared to take care of a fish they just won randomly. they just end up dying in a bowl.

THESE GAMES ARE DISGUSTING. stop treating living things like cheap plastic toys to be tossed in a bag.

I don't think they should have live animals for prizes
