Topic: Can you eat friendly animals (Read 245 times)
If you rear some goats(for example) for food and the goats end up loving you lots and you love the goat too, can you kill and eat the goats when it's time to eat them? How do you handle such situation, sell the goats, keep them as pet or just let them live?

depending on the purpose of people raising goats. because almost all breeders benefit from raising livestock.
All that love going into your belly should make you healthier than ever.
People who grow animal to eat them later dont catch feelings. they just go feed them and leave and spend as less time as they can so they dont get attached. At the end of the day you need to eat so even if you catch feeling you got no choise if that is most of your food/source of income

If I'm not starving and there's still food to eat, I don't think I will kill it just to eat it, I don't have the stomach it on animals where I already have affection, I will just let it live and enjoy the company, we should cherish what we love, you can eat other foods like vegetables or eggs, I don't see a reason why I have to kill it and eat, besides nothing to eat.
I've been a vegetarian for six months now. I can't kill animals, I feel sorry for them. I think it's unfair to take someone's life for your own pleasure
I guess by someone's life you mean animal?Well, I think we could depend on them for meat when we need to rather than for pleasure. And I think it's better to use them for food when they are old, matured enough or when it's time for them to leave this world.
It's also important to end them when they are in good state. I wouldn't be surprised if benefit the meat eater health-wise to end the animal they wish to consume in good state. You don't kill them forcely, brutally, while their families watch helplessly, while they scream for help, etc

I don't think I can imagine you established a relationship on that particular animal and you are going to eat it, I don't think I can stomach that I prefer buying goat meat if I want to eat goat meat, there's an emotional attachment between the two of you and you are heartless if you do that, let him die a natural death or let other people kill it and eat but not you.

For me personally, I could not do this unless maybe I was going to die if I did not. Even then, I think I would choose to just die with the animal by my side. The animal can eat me to survive.
Trust me , things will change when time comes. You will never let your Stomach starve when there are something that you can eat.Remember this that when starvation happens in future , Even Human Flesh will be a Food for you trust me.
Chinese will answer what is a friendly animal, and why you asking a question about eating it, of course I'm going to deep frie that bat till it becomes crunchy.
Sorry if i offended anyone but i feel bored after a week from self isolating since i got infected with covid19.

Not at all friendly animals I eat and not my taste to eat an animal that is rear for me ,but I observed some of people are easily to them to eat a rear animal's that's newly seen to them that's why we heard from the news or in the Tv that they are poisoned toward on what they eat a rear animal's an also I observed that they eat also a Dog and Cat an that is Considered a man best friend.

Friendly animals can be eaten but not all friendly animals can be eaten of dogs and cats it is not possible to eat their meat. Many people in developing countries cannot afford meat but can carry insects reduction which creates economic opportunities for those who do it in developing countries most of these people are women living in rural areas. Globally the most dangerous underground insect of all insect species that makes sense is because 40 percent of insects are insects also used to eat rabbits, yellow dinosaurs and superworms reptiles and fish.
But if it's a pet, we do not have the heart to eat it because we give them food and take care. It is like we kill ourselves by doing that. Maybe if we do not have anything to eat and we are suffering and can not survive if we do not eat, we might do that. But still, it is not good if you do that. 
i thought this is from star trek monster
Just try eating a pet while it is alive, and it suddenly won't be so friendly. Then you can more easily forget the former kindness you had for it.
lol , that may happen when Zombie days come but not in our time now
Goat is a farm animal intended for milk and eating. If you treat him as pet then its your relationship with them but for some its for consumption.
There are some exceptions like cows which is sacred for Indians, they somehow don't eat them afaik because they make it related to their religion I think. Rabbits are also eating particularly for the hunters. It's even delicacy since meat tastes like chicken. Rabbits breed faster which I guess if not eaten, they will populate faster.
Ofcourse.
I will likely just consume their milk, use their droppings as manure, use them for clearing weed or for keeping the grasses low/trimmed as someone mentioned above.
Once we are bonded, I doubt I could ever kill or eat them without throwing up
It's just a matter of how a person would look at it. Maybe I will also throw up if its my dog.
There are still places where dogs are eaten actually. If you just listen to your older uncles' stories and how they live before some of them might have eaten their pet dogs too. Historically people eat dogs. In colder places, people do eat dogs because their meat raises body temperature.
Today people promotes pet like they are part of the family, the internet spreads the information like it's not allowed to be eaten that's why it's somehow not moral anymore. When I was in Thailand, I have eaten dog meat too just to try it out.

Like most carnivores, I have no problem eating friendly animals. Most of the animals we eat are selectively bred specifically for friendliness, in fact. You ever try eating a non-friendly animal? It's much more difficult; it's always trying to eat you first. Best stick with the friendly ones.
Friendly animal example: Rabbit. Easy to eat. Goes good with hot sauce.
Unfriendly animal example: Neptunian slug. Difficult to eat. Cast-iron cookware recommended.

It would depend what kind of animal you are referring.
There are animals that I think I wouldn't try to eat even if their meat is edible.
For example Dog Meat or even Cat Meat, I see a lot of post recently selling rabbit meat but I think I could give it a try.

That's disgusting ,Eating animal you love? this is not far from being cannibal because when we love the animal we almost treat them as human like us (though of course they are not)
So NO i am not eating my Loved animal even if i'm starved to Death.

I staid with a distant cousin on their Hanwoo farm and every day I would hear the animals being slaughtered. It was awful after being playful with them says before.
I Love exotic foods, i even eaten crocs and Whales and sharks in exotic restaurant .
but i don't think i can eat my loved animals , that is behind my desire and capacity .
Yeah that is savage i guess.

I’m a meat eater but if I had to deal with live stock or something on an every day basis I’d probably convert & become a veggie. I couldn’t bond with an animal & then play a role in killing it.

I am hard to kill my lovely pets but maybe I will sell the goats. I prefer to buy goat meat than to kill my goat. Or the other option is just to let them live.
Animals and humans have a relationship that can not say because that is related to our hearts. The animal knows how we love them and that is real and can be proven.

Personally , there are animals that we usually have as Pet and yeah we really love those kind like My Dog and Cat and also my Rabbit and Hamster .Asking this question to see if what I learnt about animals-human relationship is true and can be proven.
I do love them and i will never have a guts to kill and eat them because i treat them as part of the family(Not unless there is a Hunger time that i have no choice but to eat them to survive)
but Animals like Goat? they are being breed to be a Source of Milk and Meat , but once you have them as Pet then the story change , yiu will treat them as love one .

So every live stock farmer should become a began. 
I don't think it should be like that, we may choose some animals as pet so we can avoid that species from our meal but I am not going to entirely cut meats from my meal just because I love a species, because if everyone started to think like that then food cycle will get disturbed.

I would keep them as a pet.
I don't intend to kill a pet when it has already made a bond with me. The relationship that I've built with that pet is better to be seen ending up when it goes into natural death.

As the person who develop personal touch with the goat i'll rather sell it out than killing him and eat him. Not sure why
but getting attached with the animal lead me not to like eating them.
There are people who raise those kind of animal in one particular reason, to use them for their feast but they are not
engaging or using any personal thing as how OP state his close relationship with the animal.

I have a friend who had some goats cleaning up weeds on a property he owned. His family became friendly with the goats and treated them as pets. That led to the goats acting more like pets than workers and they would end up hanging around near the residence waiting for attention instead of doing their jobs. As a response, my friend slaughtered and ate the goats, then bought more and asked his family to leave them alone. It worked and there was no more goat eating… Not quite the same, but in this story it was the compassion for goats that led to their demise.

I've never had any other animals besides dogs, so maybe I can't really answer this question well...Asking this question to see if what I learnt about animals-human relationship is true and can be proven.
but if I have a goat like that, I will definitely sell it so it doesn't interfere with my performance because taking care of goats is quite heavy and the droppings are always scattered everywhere.

In some countries goats are animals with a special relationship to its owners, I don't think they could kill and eat them. It feels like a bond we see between cats, dogs or horses in other countries. There is no way I would ever eat dog or cat meat. Humans eat too much meat anyways, better let them live and start eating some biological alternatives. Have you ever tried tofu?

Personally I don't have any pets which we are using as edible items but in the old days we used to have bulls if I am not wrong so no one in my house doesn't eat beef meant but they eat others chicken, eggs, etc.Asking this question to see if what I learnt about animals-human relationship is true and can be proven.
And also I know people who grow animals like goats for the meat purpose as well so it depends on how we see it.
