Well you should probably stop eating fish then, because trawling absolutely does kill dolphins. Its called by-catch.
Not all animals are the same. Killing an endangered dolphin weighs much different to eating a mussel.

Do you understand what am example is? Most fishing trawlers don’t fish in the Amazonas river. So you are somewhat wrong.

Yeah I think you are right.

So you’d recommend only eating animals until they are endangered and then eating other animals until they are no longer? Is that what you want to express?
Or are you arguing that some animals are more sentient than others (e.g. mammals vs mussels), and we should switch to eating snails and mussels only, because of that?

Just saying their figure is completely irrelevant since not all are created equally.
We should probably substitute meat by eating more mollusks. They are rather eco friendly. And insects, probably.
A chicken is also much smaller than a cow.

Your penis is also much smaller than a cow, or a chicken. Should we all start eating your dick? Seems like size does matter indeed.

I didn’t say which one is better choice. Killing cows may be preferential as fewer beings have to exist and extinction is preferable. Or you use another metric. I don’t care. Just be consistent and sensible in your arguments.
