10+ years vegan here. You should not feed plants to a carnivore. Maybe in the future, but not today. I attended a PETA workshop about a healthy plant-based diet a couple years ago and everybody agreed on that. I met a lot of different vegans and not once have I heard this opinion.
You are on to something here.
You can feed plants to a carnivore, just don't expect it to be enough.
My dog, for example, loves carrots and cucumbers. They make great treats for him. But please don't substitute real meat food that he has evolved to eat with carrots and cucumbers
Dogs are omnivores like pigs or humans. They can get everything their body needs from plants. Cats are carnivores, their digestive system is completely different, they are designed to eat raw meat.
We are not. If the meat is slightly too old, too warm, not well cooked we get super sick. Pigs eat a rotten squirel and be fine.
.....
Pigs evolved to eat meat?
are you shitting me right now?
Google search and your comment say they're omnivores. But given your comment they're still more resilient to meat than us?
Can we even call ourselves omnivores at this point? We are so much worse omnivores compared to other omnivores, aren't we just herbivores with a tolerance to meat?
You're probably right. I'd love to talk about that, but in my native language and face to face. This is exausting. :)
19:30, lucerne main station. you're from feddit.org, you surely speak german.
7 Stunden mit dem Zug. Ich melde wenn ich mal in der Gegend bin. :)
Aren't dogs some type of omnivores instead of carnivores?
well, my dog certainly isn't
but yes, you're obviously right, they are generally seen as omnivore. Although they lean harder on the carnivore-side than the herbivore-side.
Not general omnivores - there's a specific type for that category. I'm no biologist though so ill have to look it up and get back to you. I could be wrong. Don't trust a stranger on the internet lol
Yeah, PETA wants to be the only ones who kill housepets. If all the cats are dead from vegan diets, there won’t be any left for PETA to kidnap and euthanize.
/s but not really because PETA habitually steals pets and immediately euthanizes them before the owner can reclaim them.
This was one incident a hundred years ago. Kinda strange, I have to admit. But do you know why PETA kills so many animals? And do you know that the whole story was published by the dairy industry?
That did happen, but to call it habitual isn't fair.
Wow. If PETA think you're nuts, you're definitely nuts.
