re>animal rights
In response to Brian Luke's "... if for some reason we must insist on deriving
our ethics by looking at other animals, why focus on the 20% of animal species
who are predators, rather than the 80% who are vegetarians? Instead of
insisting on the human right to "kill with the grace of a cat," why not
celebrate our capacity to enact veganism with the peace and dignity of a
mountain gorilla--at least then we'd be copying a fellow primate!" --
Was it chimpanzees or gorillas that have been found to not only be
"occasionally" carniverous, but cannibalistic?
Sorry not to be able to find the source, Rebecca Ross.
