Your source:
If all of humanity started to "occasionally consume tiny vertebrates and insects" while "primarily consuming plants" by tomorrow, which we could, we'd be way better off. Do you agree?
Yes, I've read my source. What it says is that Gorillas are NOT purley vegan (which was your statement) while not contradicting anything I said.
Even grazing herbivours, (cows, buffaloes) will occational eat small vertabrets. So not being considered "carnivores in the wild" doesn't really mean anyhing. You don't need to be carnivore (or even an omnivore) to not have a "purley vegan" diet.
Which of course makes sense, because animals are opportunistic, not idealistic.
I certainly wouldn't, but that wasn't really the point.
Really, the only "true vegan" animals are probably Pandas and Koalas which is kinda meaningless as well considering they don't eat anything else other than bamboo and eucalyptus, respectively
Us humans are opportunistic animals as well, which has led to us destroying our global habitat. So we need to change or society will collapse in the not so distant future. There are a lot of things we need to address to survive the next century. The way we eat is one of them. And it's the easiest, because you don't have to get off your ass and protest, you don't have to buy an expensive EV, you just change a habit and stop buying the destructive food next time your shop at the supermarket. You choose the food that saves ⅔ land use, waterpollution and co2-emissions. That's my point.
That makes sense.
My point was soley about Gorillas not having a purley vegan diet.
