> What I've always wondered about people who are vegetarians because they believe it's wrong to kill and eat animals is this. Why is it OK for animals to kill other animals and eat them but not for us to kill and eat animals? Humans are biologically omnivorous, and we're higher on the food chain, so why is it so bad for us to eat animals but it's OK for a lion to eat animals?

Many people do it to protest the inhumane treatment the animals get before they're slaughtered.
