Tofudog | NO, Eating Roadkill is NOT Vegan | Common Misunderstandings about Roadkill and Veganism @tofudog4u | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Is eating roadkill vegan? These animals didn’t die specifically to be food, right? The question of eating somebody’s body when you don’t have to brings up some interesting points about veganism and speciesism, and in this video I explore if it’s ok for vegans to eat roadkill.
Moreover, how responsible are we as individuals for the animals who do end up as roadkill, killed by our cars on the streets that run through their habitats? 2 billion animals die each year as a result of being hit by cars- cars that are driven by humans. The best thing we can do for these animal victims is choose to not have children, and thereby reducing the demand for vehicles to be on the roads, saving more animals from death on the roads.
How responsible do you feel for roadkill? What do you think of the link between not having children/lowering the human population for the sake of the animals?
