    That is true. But when a wolf kills a buncha sheep just to eat the livers, at the very least other animals in that cycle get to feed from the remains. Scavenger animals now get a whole-ass free meal, the bugs can now pick the bones clean if they want to, and the flies that lay their larvae will make a fine meal for smaller birds.

    But with humans, its different how we discard animal waste? At the rate in which we do it, nature just CANNOT keep up. Im unsure if factories already do this, but if we could make it manditory dor ALL FACTORIES to recycle the remains of their meat products, I feel like the world would be a thousand times better. Example:

    Need animal bones for a project or craft? Farmers now have shops that you can buy those from! The same can also be sold to people who wish to study animals but aren’t in a school to do so.

    Zoo’s in need of meat for their carrion-loving animals? Factories can ship them ALL the delicious meat scraps they could ever want!

    (I cant think of much else besides bones and undesirable meat that we discard so ima leave that example there lmao)

    If anything, we can do what every other animal does and create a mutual relationship with buzzards and vultures!! idk what the general consensus is on feeding the buzzards but uhh… idk- they gotta eat too lol.

    Meat eater here. Animals aren’t a fucking object. Lemme just get that straight.

    I eat meat, I love meat, I’d probably try deer hunting if I wasn’t such a pussy (meow :3). But I feel as though what separates me from most other people is that I DEEPLY cherish the things nature gives to me, from the flesh of prey animals down to the Poke plants that grow outta my backyard. I’m more than thankful for their sacrifice.

    If I was a meat farmer. I would love every single fucking one of my cattle, I truly would. I would strive EVERY single day to give them the best possible life for them. Knowing they will one day be put to rest for their resources, it’s only morally right to ME that I make sure every waking day they spend on this earth is the best. I probably would produce much, but I’m fine with that. I’m just glad I was able to give them a good life.

    The animals I feed upon are not just “prey” they are a gift from the earth itself. I dont believe it’s helpful for a human to deprive themselves of meat altogether, We were made to consume plants and animals, no different from other apex predators. But what matters most to me is people respecting the earth and the animals that feed and provide for us. To act as though we are above them, that they are nothing to us, to kill them with no regard or remorse, and to waste their flesh is barbaric, it’s disrespectful.

    idk, I think I read way too deeply into that Circle of Life speech from Lion King 🤪

    Ok but aren’t “Vegan meat” industries just another potentially shady Company?? Like how do we know they aren’t gonna fall into the same deceptive practices that the Meat Industry does? Just because an animal isn’t being harmed doesn’t mean there isn’t some corporate fuckery going on behind the scenes? (Ew now I sound like a communist or anti-capitalist.)

    I’m realizing now this isn’t in America, so tbh good for them, I trust whatever they’re doing over there is honest. But if this was in America?? Nah… I dont trust the food industry here at all.
