The only Pleistocene mega-fauna that survive in Pleistocene numbers are
the ones that we breed [take two by two in Old Testament parlance] to
eat.
Every day the pigs give thanks to
God [and bacon] that, even after thousands of years of persecution, they still
outnumber those who would call them unclean.

* directly or indirectly, everybody is somebody else's lunch.
* plants may have feelings
* fungi may have more intelligence, "feelings", etc. than plants
* we may be eating more meat than we need for our current lifestyles
* natural selection may move humans to needing less food from animals
* there is no completely vegetarian society; some eat insects, e.g.
One of my few ethical food choices is to eat lamb and veal rarely. I feel that the animals deserve a life. Also, they deserve a better one than we have been giving them in factory farming.
