Animals are not "made" to be eaten?

Does this apply to lions also? Were zebras and antelope not "made" for them to eat? Why does this ONLY apply to humans?

    People humanize animals and they begin to feel sympathy for them. I do this too, I must admit, but I'm not a vegan, and I love eating meat. I really don't care much about the entire debate between vegans and non-vegans, I mean,

    if you eat meat: eat your steak and shut up

    if you don't: still shut up

    But let me just say, Lions eat Zebras, and they don't care, because they don't have human emotions. Though us humans are much more civilized, if we didn't have our emotions, we would do that exact same thing.

    Idk, aren't there certain vitamins/nutrients that the animal meat has that the human body needs but could not produce and also in fruits/vege. I know we could rely on vitamins but i don't think there were vitamins back then. And human are also part of the food cycle, if we don't eat that certain food that we're supposed to wouldn't it affect the food chain somehow like certain animals that we eat will be produced excessively causing the food that the animals eat to reduce and so on increase/reduce. Do you get me?

    I might be wrong, i'm not sure but I agree on what I said haha.

    Humans were made to eat meat that is why humans are born omnivores/carnivores. Humans are suppose to eat meat and animals. If we weren't then we would have been born herbivores. But the higher power chose to make humans with a digestive system designed to eat meat.

    Eating animals is wrong yes, for all animals. I take it that a long time ago, poor people relied solemnly on animals as a food osurce, so ate them. It's now a part of everyday life (fast food, grilling foods, etc.), and that's very wrong. I eat meat myself, but it's just taken over.

    Because humans are the only ones 'gifted' enough to make up bullsh!t to support their emotional problems.

    Animals are not "made" to be eaten? - somewhat true...animals are not made....but this is an eat or be eaten kind of world, I accept that.

    cuz wild animals eat anything to survive and have strong digestive systems. we eat food because it tastes good and we can't digest as well as most animals. for example we cant eat grass without getting sick because it takes so long to digest and wads up in our stomachs
