Synonyms: kill, put to death...
I get that mercy is a valid argument, but they don't ask for mercy.
Humans are the only species on Earth that are at least known to commit suicide purposely or have the want to die. Animals, unlike us have an extreme will to survive no matter the cost.
e.g. the coyote bites off its leg when trapped
or something along those lines.
"kill (someone)", last I checked animals weren't (someone)
also, if you've ever seen the webm of the crocodile disemboweling the zebra and the zebra trying to push his guts back in after he escapes, you'd know how futile it is. The zebra died after 2 days of absolute agony. If it was euthanized, it wouldn't have been in pain.

The zebra clearly would rather suffer than die.
Don't get technical
Taking a life is taking a life
If the life of an individual, may it be human or animal, will consist only of pain and suffering until they die, what is the point of letting them go through those stages of suffering?
