I am happy to be born as a human, we are higher animals that stay on the top of the food chain, we are not the strongest because if we are to fight with animals like elephants, lions, and the like in one battle, we will lose, we are gifted the power to dominate all other animals with our smart brain.
Humans now tame and domesticate wild animals bigger and stronger than them which shows we were born to rule over the animal kingdom.
The hive learner prompt is an interesting topic, So I asked myself... Can I go Vegan?
Vegetarians are people who do not eat meat or eat anything that comes from slaughtering other animals, I respect these people because they care about the life of other animals and do not want us to see them as food anymore.
I remember a few years ago when I still lived with my parent, we reared native hens and there was a time when I was interested in how they lay eggs and hatch their chicks, so I kept a record of one of our hens... When the hen hatched her eggs, she had 12 chicks and out of those 12, only 7 survived I picked interest in 1 out of the seven, it was smart and looked more attractive so I would feed this chick more out of the others.
Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months, and the chick grew to become a white cock, there is a saying that the love humans have for a hen ends in the pot of soup, they show it love by feeding it and when it is big enough, they kill it and enjoy the laps and others...
In my case, it was different, I begged my dad not to kill this cock at some point and that they should kill the other which he listened to but still a few weeks later, when it was the only cock left, The family came back for it and I was so pained, I didn't want to lose it but it is what it is, it belongs to the family not me, anyway I ate out of the meat too.
If I can have such a bond with a cock, I can imagine the pains of dog lovers when their favorite dogs died, it is like losing a family member and that also makes me understand why it is a crime to kill dogs and cats in some countries, even though here in my country, some tribes kill and eat dogs.
As regards being a vegetarian, this is something I can do, my best food is plantain!, I would still be able to eat jollof rice and other rice dishes, Beans, pap, pounded yam, vegetables, and so on... The only difference is I won't be able to eat meat, chicken, or turkey which is fine with me, I like to eat them but I can do without them.
When I was small and they served me food, I would make sure to finish the food before touching the meat and this habit mastered me till now, so I just see the meat as something I need to eat after food.
Living Life has a vegetarian won't be bad. especially now that things are costly, One kilo of turney is 8000 naira, 1 kilo of chicken is 6000, we will later become vegetarian by force with the rate things are going lol.

Giving up is not an option, every hustler has a payday
Don't wish for it, Make it happen
I am a vegetarian and I love it.
I never tasted meat and do not have any desired to have it.
oh that is nice, respect to you man
Ahh! After all the love, you still ended up eating the chicken 😂😂
You know being a vegetarian is actually very expensive because since you're not getting all the protein and zinc you would from the vegetables ,you would need to get supplements for you to be healthy. Those supplements aren't cheap.
lolz, they have killed it already na, my loss if i didn't , I tried my best to save it sha😞
hmm that is another point, but there is always a way around it
At least you tried for the chicken 😂
Yh
correct, God gives us dominion over animal kingdom but we still need to respect them and care for them always. We certainly will die one day but definitely a healthy lifestyle pays off by avoiding a lot of troubles
yea I do not support animal cruelty...
Lol, you are right my friend. Things are revolving and I believe so do we need to revolve around it. Being a vegetarian is not something bad but most just try to avoid it. I love your points you shared and I hope you get to rare another chicken which you will not kill😁😁😁
lol, maybe in the nearest future, I might rear chickens
Lol let's hope that's happens 😂
I would not choose to lead a life as a vegetarian. I am not a fan of meat but I think the taste of it is not bad either. Dogs and chickens both are different creatures. As well as I know hens/chickens can't be so friendly like dogs.
hmmm, both have lives, are you saying it is justifiable to kill one because it is not friendly?
I don't see anything wrong with it. Every creatures have a fate and it's normal. It's creating balance in a ecosystem. We kill mosquito and it's also a life. Do you think it's wrong also to kill a mosquito?

I like you sha😁😁
The only reason why I can be a vegetarian is if I’m offered a high amount of money go to become one
If not, I’d never do it
lolz
the real meat eaters are here
You’re truly right but you know most of we Nigerians have this mentality that we need to have proteins such as meat, eggs and all in our foods so it may be hard to stay away from it
I’m speaking for myself though
yea you are right, even though we have other food that supplies protein and not meat, but yea those meat, egg and other animal product serve a purpose too
