HAHA! Did they actually do an autopsy on the hamster?

Two years seems harsh. Its just a friggin hamster. Perhaps forcing her to pay fines and possibly take some anger management classes would be better for society. We don't need another person in prison for a friggin hamster.

Hamsters are living beings too. How would you feel of a superior alien species came to earth and one of them strangled you while thinking "meh, it's just a human, no big deal"?

Well I would hope the superior specie pays some fines I guess...

Superior creatures kill other things all the time! That's nature. I mean cat kills mouse, dog kills cat, and some people eat dog.

If a cat doesn't get prision time for killing a mouse than neither should a human. Case closed!

There's a huge difference between killing an animal out of necessity (to obtain food, to defend yourself, to prevent an infestation) and killing animals for fun.

Also, I don't think that dogs are necessarily superior to cats on the evolution scale.
