There’s little doubt that these unwilling but plucky exiles have beaten the odds over the last few months, first evading the sights of eager autumn hunters, and then the jaws of hungry foxes and weasels, only to endure the many privations of the harsh and long North American winter eking out their survival in a strange and inhospitable landscape.

I once knew a guy who kept and raised cats. This almost certainly can be argued to be true just on the basis of logic, because feral Cats are proficient hunters and are entirely out of ecological place. In North America, you’ve got Bears at the large end, Cats in the middle, and at the smaller end, the Mustilids.

The question can be raised: Why should these organisms be killed and others not be killed? Animals in the wild try to escape from hunters.) This, however, is not our world, so I don’t understand the bearing of the question. If so, no moral objection based on the killing of animals could be raised to the eating of meat.
