and i was wondering if you have any ideas. i am doing a research paper, and this is one of the topics i was given. the description says, "...investigating the ethical implications of killing and eating animals for food."
some things to think about:
is it possible to kill and eat animals in ethical fashion?
consider: manner in which animals are killed and how they have evolved over time
philosophy of ethics
economic concerns (cheap meat for those who cant afford other food)
evolution
depictions of carnivorism
im not asking for you to do my research paper, but it would help me a lot if you can point me in the right direction by giving me some articles or books that you know of that deals with this. thanks.

The go-to guy on this issue is Peter Singer. Reading through some of his stuff will give you some ideas, whether you agree or disagree with him. (He's a staunch defender of animal rights and advocate of vegetarianism.) Below is a link to some of his work available online.
Good luck.

attempt looking up something to do with looking and wild interest. i'm a hunter myself (love greens, yet definitaly no longer a vegetarian). yet once you seek wild interest looking on line you will desire to discover a brilliant form of professional meat eatting human beings. additionally you will desire to look into an ingredient view of the entire animal crulity ingredient. Animals that are contained in the wild and hunted down for foodstuff are distinctive from livestock in many procedures from how they're dealt with, residing existence naturaly, no longer cooped up and fed fillers and hormones. in common terms a theory, a twist to the traditional disscusions you spot from greens vs meat and how animals are dealt with. wish this facilitates.

consider that if your ancestors HADN'T killed animals and eaten them, you would probably not be here to write this paper...
