If PETA tells people not to eat animals, why don't they tell the lions and tigers to stop eating animals too?

Great question! I can not stand these PETA people and their moronic cause. Do they ever wonder why chickens, livestock and fish reproduce and grow so rapidly? And as far as lions and tigers being only carnivores... couldn't the good people at PETA just whip them up some soy burgers or something?





My two questions are this. PETA stands for "People for he Ethical Treatment of Animals"... (I tend to go with the "tasty aforementioned "tasty" logo myself) So, assuming I kill the animal ethically... like, chopping the head off the turkey (instant death) Why would they have a problem with this?





Second... I would hope that they do not seek medical advise or treatment for many illnesses as many drugs and surgical procedures were perfected and tested on poor little innocent animals. So when their friends, parents, kids or any loved one needs this attention, I hope they stick to their guns and boycott these medical facilities and not support human life over the life of an animal.

If PETA tells people not to eat animals, why don't they tell the lions and tigers to stop eating animals too?
Good point. And have you seen how African wild dogs eat their poor victims ALIVE! Shouldn't we bring all those predators captive and save the Zebras?





PETA is a wacko extremist group not worthy of any attention at all. For the most part nobody even pays attention to them except when the nude women show up downtown. Which only demonstrates that they are completely cracked eggs.
Reply:Because lions and tigers aren't concious beings. That's PETA's argument. We're advanced and should no better than to kill the animals.





For me, PETA means People Eating Tasty Animals. If we weren't supposed to eat meat, we wouldn't have teeth capable of doing it. And besides, meat is yummy.
Reply:They don't understand "human talk"...also they would say that animals don't know any better and can't make a choice of what they eat. (I am not a PETA supporter, I had a ham sandwich for lunch)
Reply:I don't know what to make of this question. Obviously you're not serious, so you must be trying to make some sort of point. But I can't tell what.
Reply:PETA's stupid. The president Ingrid Newkirk has killed thousands of animals and PETA workers have been caught red handed throwing dog carcasses into dumpsters.
Reply:Maybe they've tried.
Reply:They did and the lions at them!
Reply:Oh give me a break!! Like a lion and tiger can go to the grocery store and buy just about anything it wants?





Humans have choices. Humans can THINK and REASON and do not have to hunt to survive because we have domesticated animals that we can then slaughter to satisfy our desires for a big, honking steak.





Your question is rather ridiculous and if you think about it for more than half a second, you will realize it.
Reply:They obviously haven't heard of the FOOD CHAIN.
Reply:because we have other things to eat. we are not just carnivours. but lions and tigers are, and they also don't have anything else to eat!
Reply:Ingrid New kirk the co founder and self proclaimed "good kind atheist" CEO stupid campaigns for one. Many are blatantly racist and unsympathetic like comparing eating animals to Slavery of Africans and worse the Jewish Holocaust, that is a good one,,,,they are an absolutely disgusting organization it makes me want to sport a chinchilla and eat steak everyday! They trash fashion designers stores and throw paint on stars like J-lo and others who have even punched them out. I mean is this the way to protest animal cruelty no. I eat meat but then again I'm not about to torture defenseless animals or household pets. If they weren't there for us to consume in my opinion it wouldn't be in the bible we are the stewards of the earth and are able to consume them.





most of the imbecile who work for PETA are from upper middle class or rich families who can dwell on this while most poor people in the third world have to kill animals to eat and clothe themselves. Its patronizing and racist and self imposing to tell these people what they can do with the little that they do won or have when you come from wealth like the atheist Ingrid New kirk.
Reply:haha, oh wait are you serious? because i think it is kinda funny that you put yourself on the same level as lions and tigers. who knows, though, maybe you arent capable of higher intellect.
