than meat eaters
Intestinal tract
12 times body
length
Carnivores have

Strong hydrochloric
acid in stomach to
digest tough animal

20. Is There Any Connection Between Meat Eating Habits and World Starvation?
80-90% of all grain grown in America is used to feed meat animals.
If we gave our grain supply to the poor and malnourished, instead of cattle, we could easily feed nearly all of the chronically underfed people in the world.
Reducing meat production by just 10% would release enough grain to feed 60 million people.
If we ate half as much meat, we could release enough food to feed the entire ‘developing word’.
