I agree.
I don't mind the beetle fights as long as they are the same species fighting over a female as it is in the wild. They pretty much wrestle and no real damage is done. I saw one where they have removed a beetle before any of them were injured. Some of those guys seem to care for their little wrestlers. :)
Although, I don't think that those more natural and humane fights are represented on that site. I saw the photos of different species in a ring and will not watch them as it sickens me. :(
I keep and feed live prey to my bugs, but I actually have feelings for my feeders and will spoil them with fresh fruits, veggies, and fish food. They are what gives life to my other creatures and I love them. I would never feed prey that is too large and may out match my predators, cause that would be no different than having my own "bug fights".
