Poisoning Toads in the Dungeon: Part I We had something of a debate going on the PoA spork about the “poisoning Trevor” Potions lesson. It sparked some thoughts: first on cruelty to animals in the Potterverse; secondly, on how JKR chose to highlight some incidents and downplay others. And then that sparked another about how Snape used this particular incident to establish a reputation for cruelty, and why he might have wanted to do so…. So I thought I’d bring the debate about the “poisoning Trevor” potions class over here, and let everyone join in.
