Why just livestock. What "wrong" with a little tiger stew, roast dog, or
elephant burgers? It seems to me that there are religious and cultural
elements to OUR dietary needs, just as the vegan is accused of following
some religious ideals. I seem to recall a Christian perspective on what
animals are acceptable to kill for food and which aren't. Oddly, we do
seem to follow this as a culture.

I wonder the outcome for a person living in largely religious society
that refuses to comply with those dietary expectations.
