- tredre3 9mo agoThanks to tools, I'm a far more capable hunter than my cat. It's trivial for a human of any size to kill a slow moving cow. It's very hard to imagine any scenario where a domestic cat would be capable of hurting a cow, let alone kill and eat it.
- nkrisc 9mo agoHumans have been hunting prey many times larger than themselves for tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of years (maybe even millions).
- ErroneousBosh 9mo agoActually I'm well north of 100kg, and being a tool-using ape that's about 1/6th the weight of and considerably taller than the animal I want to eat it's a fairly easy task. If I was 1/150th the weight of a cow with my eyeline roughly level with the top of the animal's foot, armed with teeth about 12mm long and sharp claws about 5mm long, I suspect it would be considerably more difficult.
