So why is charging loads for gerbils to artificially enhance their value
any quicker than changing attitudes in other ways?

You can charge what you want but no-one has to pay it. If people do not
value gerbils they will not pay the money for them. it is not what
someone pays that shows the value, it is what a person would pay a vet
to save the animals life. Surely this is the value that the courts
should be applying and that is the sort of thing you should be
campaigning for. Would a court say a child's life has no value because
it can easily be replaced by a fertile couple? Of course not. This is
all about attitudes and not money.
