Actually meat eaters mostly consume factory farmed animals who wouldn't have existed if the factory farm system wasn't around, so you aren't saving a bunch of animal lives by eating chickens, pigs, cows, etc. You are perpetuating the suffering of these animals by eating meat.

In addition to that, human beings have the intellectual capacity to rise above our natural instincts, animals generally do not. Some may reason that eating animals is morally wrong, while realizing animals are killing other animals every second of every day.

factory farmed lions? where?

The dumb argument in the OP is an attempt to justify meat eating in general. No meat eater is strictly eating lions and stray cats, and even if they did, a vegan would make the argument that killing those animals(unless it's completely necessary for survival) is immoral.

Nope, I just have the intellectual ability to realize the stupid argument in the OP is an attempt to justify meat eating in general. Do you think the OP survives on lion and stray cats?

He'd also have to backup the "I save more animals than vegans do" line. Most likely incorrect.
