It is the same. The entire collateral animal death
toll needs to be considered. That includes the deaths
in cultivation, harvesting, storage, and distribution.
For example, perhaps you were unaware of it - most
likely, you are unaware - but grain crops are stored in
elevators at which *active* extermination of rodents is
conducted, to prevent both "theft" and contamination of
the grain.
Sort of makes you look at that wholesome whole-wheat
bread in a new light, doesn't it?
