Humans did kill and eat other species to survive. At this point, Americans eat far more animals than needed solely for survival - often so much as to be unhealthy - and it is quite possible to survive and thrive without consuming animals.

They eat far more plants than needed as well. Animals has nothing to do with it.

Animals has a lot to do with it - Animals are sentient, thinking, feelings beings. A calf has the same personality and emotions as a puppy.

And a pig has the IQ of a 3 year old human.

The ratio of meat to vegetables in the Western diet is high.
