No, not really.  True plant eaters can't/won't eat meat at all, their digestive system probably can't support it.

feinicks Wrote:That is simply cause wee have more intelligence. Humans have no physical trait that describes them as hunters or predators. Had meat eating sufficed, farming would not have been invented/discovered.

Humans are omnivores, can eat and survive on both meat and plants.  It's just that numbers grew, and there aren't enough wild animals to eat and wild plants to gather, so wee needed to cultivate our own animals and plants.  Nothing to do with eating meat being "not sufficient".

feinicks Wrote:Also, almost no meat-eating mammal kills another of the same species and consume it as food. So humans are in no way special.

I never said wee're special in that way did I?  I was just countering your statement of "then why don't wee eat other humans?".  Because it doesn't work that way.

No, humans can only produce at most 1 offspring a year, naturally.  (Don't mention twins and triplets, because without all the technology, you have twin = you dead).  So that makes us reproduce significantly slower than most animals, which can produce many offspring at a time.

feinicks Wrote:That is why humans have become so populous that it doesn't justify the claim as "top animal".

Intelligence > all.

feinicks Wrote:There is no such worth in Natural order. That is what humans have invented. Most endangered species as endangered due to human intervention.

Again, I never said anything to do the natural order.  It's just the general rule of "worth" in the minds of humans.  I'm just saying there is absolutely nothing wrong if someone else doesn't value dogs as much as you do.  If to them, dogs = food, whatever.
