for the record a 1200 acre farm, that is more than twice the size of the average american farm, and it wasnt a meat producing farm
ftr i eat grass raised cows, didnt require any animals to kill other than the cow. A cow feeds roughly 300 people. so 1 death = 300 meals. To grow/harvest an acre of vegetable you are looking at hundreds and hundreds of animals killed.
p.s. the vegetables we eat and cows eat are very different and require vastly different amounts of rodenticides to deal with them.

in theory perhaps , in reality no it doesnt. Not one animal besides the cow was killed for my burger, LOTS of animals were killed for the salad.
lets use an actual example to help put it in perspective for you and others.
Man #1 eats naturally grazing cows/chickens
Man #2 eats only veggies from supermarket
Man #3 eats meat from supermarket
The fact remains LESS animals were killed to make MY meal ( man #1 ) and i didnt have to kill any of the top 10 smartest animals on earth to do so
the supermarket vegetarian had hundreds of the smartest animals on earth killed for their salad. Now if you mean picking natural vegetables then sure they do less klling , my bet is there isn't one vegetarian in this thread or on gfy that eats only "natural wild vegetables".
So the fact remains, less animals are killed for my meals than any vegetarian we have heard from so far and practically ANY vegetarian around.
and i am not the side claiming to be eating vegetables to "save animals" . I eat what i eat because it tastes good , and as a side benefit i kill way less animals than your average vegetarian does to eat
