I became a vegetarian, because there is no need to threat animals they way many of them are threatend. There is no need for any animal suffering and murdering! As people we are not allowed to kill other people, so why are we then allowed to kill animals. They are also alive and do have feelings. At least I can walk past a field with cows without feeling guilty. I'm a show jumping rider and many times I have the feeling that the horses trust me much more, because they can sense and smell that I don't eat any animals. They feel safer. Next to eating no animals, i don't eat/drink diary. Just a small amount of eggs, but only the ones from chicken who are having a free life.
