If the world stopped using animals for food and products ,what would we do with all of the animals?

Question

would we not ,just from burger king alone ,lose millions of jobs ? let alone ,what would we do with all of the animals that the farmers would not feed free of charge?

Answer 1

They'd probably die eventually, just like all animals do. The difference is that there wouldn't be so many more produced.

Answer 2

nature of the beast....

circle of life

what do other animals on the planet eat..besides nuts/vegetations other animals are on the menu  either served/died and eaten/or hunted and eaten/devoured..

Answer 3

We would love them.

Answer 4

Not necessarily because instead of using meat they would use soy or veggie patties so there would still be fast food places....and as for the animals, we wouldn't need to mass produce and breed them or whatever to get so many of them so therefor we wouldn't have so many and natural selection and mother nature would set in and do what the animal kingdom is meant to do...

Answer 5

This hypothetical is baseless and no sane person wants the entire human population to become vegetarian, especially all at once.

What sound even more stupid is the idea that Burger King would go out of business before it started carrying vegan food.

Answer 6

Let them live like us  

Answer 7

Oh boy, it would be insane. Because the animal rights freaks and the enviros would campaign for equal  rights of the animals. It would the civil rights movement all over again. Their would be pigs and cows with picket signs demanding the the right to vote, getting drivers licenses, getting welfare checks, unemployment checks. The animals rights people would demand free housing, health care, social security benefits. The former food product would go to California to get married to a human in order to get citizenship. They would all be registered as  Democrats. Basically everything the illegal immigrants get and do.

Answer 8

That's why we're here: to eat up some of the animals.  That's why lions and tigers are here.  Why would they be here if there weren't an overpopulation of animals.

Answer 9

Nearly all the animals humans use for food would cease to exist. Cows, domestic sheep and goats, chickens, turkeys, domestic ducks and geese, etc., are the results of millennia of human breeding. They could not exist in the wild and would become extinct.  

Answer 10

I don't think vegetarianism will take over that fast.  But as more and more people go veg, fewer and fewer animals will be bred for consumption.  This means fewer acres of rainforest burned for grazing land, less ranch land used for grazing, etc.  Yes, there would be a loss of jobs--the most brutal jobs in the country.  Some of the workers might switch to harvesting the plants, but there wouldn't be nearly as much need for labor since it takes between 5 and 15 pounds of plant matter to produce a pound of animal food.

As for all the restaurants that serve all the crummy meat products, they would either go with the flow and offer more vegetarian items, or they would go out of business.  So places like Murder King and McDeathburger, instead of offering the same two or three patties and other assorted animal parts, might offer two or three different flavors of veggie burger, soy nuggets, tofu or tempeh sandwiches, etc.

The world would adapt.

Answer 11

animals arer mass produced for the purpose of making food. if meat and meat products werent eaten, they wouldnt be forced to reproduce so rapidly and theyre would not be an excess of meat. and as for jobs, fast food restaurants could sell foods not containing animals or animal biproducts.

Answer 12

the animals would over populate and they would eat most of the plants so then there wouldn't be enough for the people
