My solution has been preemptive strikes. I live across the streat froma horde of ethical vegetarians, I've talked about where food comes from and how it is treated probably before they could understand me.

It always gives me a chuckle when confronted with the ignorant statement "Humans are the only animal which harvests the milk from others."

I always counter that humans are also the only animal which bakes bread and ferments beer from grain, so what's the point?

Lots of birds, cowbirds and cuckoos for example, are nest parasites, dumping their eggs in other birds nests to get them to raise their young.

Many seabirds, frigate birds and skuas for example, make their living buy chasing other seabirds until they regurgitate, then wolfing down the result in midair.

Numerous carnivores will steal another carnivore's kill if they have the chance.

Lots of insects have internal parisites that slowly eat them from the inside, saving critical organs for last.

Acanthocephalan worms have a glue organ that seals a female after they mate, so other males can't compete. They will sometimes do this to other male worms - a premptive strike, so to speak.

if PETA likes the animal world so much, let them provide a home for bot flies, Guinea worms, and jigger fleas.

Humans are the only species whose members (some of them) throw tantrums about the fact that some other members of their own species eat members of other species. Haven't seen many foxes protesting for hen rights. No lions attacking other lions to protect gazelles.
