Personally, I would rather herd a sheep or a cow than a bear. My
guess is that food animals are such because they are docile.
Carnivores are rarely docile. Lazy sometimes, like lions, but not
often placid.


that would make sense. and in the days when we were hunters, cows and
sheep would be easier to hunt than lions and tigers and bears. so it
would make sense that someone would eventually have the idea of
rearing such animals to make them easier to hunt.

i was wondering if maybe it was becuase carnivorous animals didn't
taste very nice or something? has anyone here ever eaten one?


I had bear once as a kid. It was really tasty, I must admit. It was
very different from beef, darker-flavored and a little greasier. I
don't know how much of that was due to preparation, though.
