The whole point of what he did was apprently to illuminate the hypocrisy surrounding meat-eating. That many people think it is okay to go into a store and buy a square packaged block of meat called "pork" or "beef" etc, and in those cases there is no admittance of personal reponsibility for the animals bad life and just as bad death.
His intent was to highlight that.
Whereas, he said, the rabbit had led a good and happy life. And was despatched quickly.
He said he had asked advice about how to 'humanely kill it' and was told that the best way was with an iron rod. Apparently he couldn't find an iron rod in the studio, and instead used a bicycle pump.
It doesn't sound as if he even cared very deeply. It was similar to saying "I don't have a bread knife to cut the loaf. What shall I use instead? I know. I'll use a butter knife."
I personally think he didn't achieve what he set out to do.
I hope people will boycott that radio show. And the DJ will have to put up with the consequences. No doubt when that happens, it will be everyone else's fault, and he has been treated unfairly for being such an enlightened person.....

In my opinion, one does not do a cruel act as a protest about other cruel acts!
