Why do people kill animals?

Question

I do not eat meat because the poor little animals suffer. if they lived as long a they cold and ate good naturl stuff, then maybe i would eat meat, but thats not how they live, people kill for there food! HELLO!!!!!!!!!! we have other food like fruits or veggies or thing with no meat in it.People that are poor and cant afford any other food,Sure eat meat. but rich people or any one who is not poor who kill for there food even though there are other things to eat, is just mean. I think everyone who kills and torchers animals should be treated the way they treat the animals, like grind the poeple's noses down and skin them with no medience and stick them in tiny cages to live there horrid life for 35 days.Whos with me?

If people didn't eat meat, the world would be taken over by animals. Hunters and meat eaters just help keep the population down. Sure, I can understand you feeling bad for them. I love animals, but it's just the way of life. Sorry.

I would take you a little more seriously if your grammar, punctuation and spelling were somewhere close to correct.

Answer 9

meat is good for you and its also good for the environment bcoz the more cows we consume the less methane gas is put in our atmosphere, methane gas is one of the causes for global warming.

i eat meat but i am a vet and i care for animals more than u can imagine currently i am nursing a baby panda back to health after her mother abandoned her i can't eat an animal when i see it get killed it upsets me deeply i have a fund that when an animal needs help and the owner can't afford it i pay for it i agree that animals should not be held captive that is why me and my husband go and help all around the world and i love to help all sorts of animals find homes so even though u don't think animals should be eaten that is your opinion but others are diffrent so don't jump to conclusions.

Answer 11

well people have to eat. but i don't think animals should be torcherd, but its OK if it painless and fast. remember that people have been doing this ever since we have been alive.

Answer 12

I agree with you completely, HOWEVER. It is a fact people hunt and farm animals because you get so much money out of them. It is very cruel what farmers do, i admit it, even now it is bringing tears to my eyes. Unfortunatley nobody is going to change the whole world to veggies, as a species, we are the worst. Also meat is vital for the human body as it is very good for you and there are no other substitutes for meat.

Answer 13

i am a vegi... but we can not force anyone to eat and not to eat...
its all about self realization...

regarding this i can say that:

when someone in family dies... we go far away and burry or burn him...
how about the grave yard we are creating inside our body...

we are humans.... we should treat animals as our friends.. they feel pain the same way we do.. they express that too...
Plants do also have life but karma level is less in them and karma level very very significant in animals...

regarding sacrifices.. i guess no god will be happy to see human killing anyone on the name of god..
god gave us birth to help the needy... not to exploit the poor animals...

human intestines are not ment to digest meat... it takes significant time to digest as compared to vegitables...

but its not the point...

Answer 14

Because there sick and twisted in the head. p.s humans have eaten meat since we crawled out of caves.

Answer 15

Firstly, I'm pretty sure vegetables are less expensive then meat so you can't just blame the richies anymore.

And secondly, meat is good for you; as a part of a balanced diet. It's particularly good for brain development which may by why your spelling and grammar skills are poor.

And thirdly killing is nature; get over it. Foxes kill rabbits for food; they could live off cabbage is they Really wanted but they don't. Perhaps we should kill all the foxes so the rabbits can live in peace and without fear?

And lastly, it is possible to eat meat that has been treated with kindness. I only eat freedom foods and I see nothing wrong with consuming a chicken that has enjoyed it's life and been killed fast and humanly. However factory farming is unacceptable in my opinion and should be outlawed but that's never gonna happen, right.

Answer 16

People hate, torture & kill each other for even less reasons. If we as a species can't... or better yet don't treat each other with humanity, how can you expect anyone to treat lower forms of life with it?

Answer 17

D MAN is a dumb meat eater. He is just another meat eater mad at all the vegetarians for his own reason. Anyway, most people who eat meat are poor, fat, and ignorant people who are too stupid and lazy to learn about what they consume daily. For example my new step dad gets really low priced meat and ever sense we started living together he has not stopped trying to get me to eat meat. Even if animals were treated like gold I still wouldn't eat them. It grosses me out! Look at GoVeg.com

Answer 18

sorry, it's human nature.



you can't change the world... no, i'm not insulting you... (understanding YOU and the world... )


move on and prospire to those things that you can do.... :D


no, it's hard labor of mind to learn.. many vegan and organic alternatives are NOT vegan or organic...


hell, my friend, my GARDEN is not organic and it can't be...actually... due to...
where i live (urban area and an apartment) my garden can't be organic or vegan...

because i have a serious white fly issue... i did try, but due to many constraints.... i must give into products that are mass produced and full of animal element (learn about the atomic age in america, it's very valuable in educational properties) and it gives me and my family our food... not overall, i still must shop around.. (and 90% if not more or less, depending how politics are now) for food that is valid.


but remember as a vegan i must accept.. that's how it is and through education.. :D


long road to the solution, is what i say (if it wasn't said before me.. which i'm sure it was.)

good luck.

Source(s):

it's "for the time being" and "i will not live to see an animal free based society" (not sure any of us will)

there, i said my piece. (vegan 45 yrs) but do your research, it's ok..... you gotta watch what you say.. because if you're not careful, a vegan can be eating meat.. why? because of the processed food society... (hint, many organic and vegan/vegetarian food elements have animal product in them.. i learned that and that's how it goes... for now.. if one can change it.. good luck to you...)

thanks, happaaaahy t-day.

Answer 19

We (humans) evolved as omnivores, because we adapted to eat meat; we cannot make protein.
We lost the ability to digest grasses (cellulose) & developed the enzymes to digest meat instead.
The herbivore dinosaurs, who failed to adapt, died out in the great extinction, 65 million years ago.

Animals should be raised humanely for food, & treated with respect; you are correct about that.
But the stuff you read about torture is all vegetarian propaganda, developed in Europe in the '30's.
North American slaughter houses are government inspected & highly controlled today.

If you are concerned, look for the Kosher or COR designation on meat products.

Answer 20

People who eat meat pay others to kill animals for them. That's just as bad as if they killed the animals themselves.

People eat meat because they won't pull their head out of the stand. They're too hung up on tradition or the messages they've heard since they were young that meat is healthy and food without meat is tasteless. Most people are complete idiots about veggie issues, saying things like "I can't eat vegetarian food" when they probably eat peanut butter and jelly all the time.

Basically, because it's easy to live in denial.

Answer 21

Money.

Answer 22

Well I suppose eating meat raises IQ because WOAH you've got some mistakes there...

But to answer your question seriously. It's not torture (emphasis on "ture"). It's called a food chain, and it's been around sing the beginning of time. At least now animals are bread for the sole purpose of food products, right? They used to be just hunted from nature. Not that there still aren't hunters but that's beside the point.
The point is survival of the fittest. Humans are at the top for a reason. We eat meat for proteins and nutrients that we cannot get with any other natural substance. We eat it because our bodies are built to eat it.
You're pretty much saying a lion shouldn't kill their prey, that lions and tigers and bears (oh my!) should be vegetarians. Because humans are animals too. We are animals, and we eat other animals. Cats are animals, and they eat other animals. I don't see why it makes a difference if we are human. We are not necessarily more intelligent than a lion or a tiger, as they are experts in their own environments. So why should we treat food differently than they treat it?
Get it?

***I'd also like to point out that meat is already dead when you buy it. As long as there are meat-eaters, there's meat in the supermarkets, so you may as well enjoy it.

You kill plants, what is the difference hypocrite?
