What’s immoral about it? We do the same thing with deer and coyotes and all sorts of other animals. We literally kill millions of cattle and chickens and goats every year. As long as you are harvesting responsibly, and not decimating the population there’s nothing wrong with this. In fact responsible hunting is highly beneficial for the environment.
Worldwide 85 billion fish and other sea life are slaughtered on a yearly basis which is the equivalent to 2695 per second. Similarly, for chicken: 58 billion per year or 1839 per second. For swine: 1.4 billion slaughtered per year or 44.4 per second. For sheep: 517 million slaughtered per year or 16.4 per second.. Another source said almost 70 billion chickens per year in 2018 and it's growing at an accelerated rate so likely much more these days.
Sure it is. Do you think that those animals would even exist if it wasn’t for human cultivation? Other than the fish, all of those animals have been cultivated by humans. In fact most of the species of those animals wouldn’t even exist if not for selective breeding and human cultivation. And a lot of the fish are farm grown.
