> Another thing many of those animals have in common with us? They eat other animals. True, but we have the option of treating the animals we eat well. The problem is that in the pursuit of profit, many animals live miserable lives. In some countries they even skin the animals (dogs, snakes etc.) while they still live. The level of cruelty is beyond my comprehension. I'm a meat eater, but if I knew that the animal had been treated well I wouldn't mind paying a bit extra. Another example is the fur industry. It is so meaningless that it amazes me that it has not been made illegal.
