Cows, hogs, chickens, rabbits, etc., eat plants and grasses and turn that vegetation into that dreaded word, meat.
Animals eat tons of vegetation and convert and store the byproduct of the vegetation into highly concentrated food known as protein. Meat is nature's protein bars but tastes a whole lot better.
Meat is a form of vegetation that is packed with protein, and remains fresh in its container until needed. In many parts of the world where climate is cold and growing seasons short meat keeps people alive and living in those cold places, otherwise they would all head south and increase the surplus population and cause real estate prices to skyrocket.
Vegetarianism is mostly a political stance more than a practical and natural way of living. Humans were created to eat meat and vegetables, a somewhat unique spot in the ecological food chain.
At the molecular/quantum level there is no real difference between meat, vegetation, wood, metals, and gases. Well, vegetarians tend to produce more of the latter...a natural byproduct of too much vegetation.

An animal is a system. Vegetation is an input to the system. Inputs to systems are not systems themselves.edit on 9/3/13 by diqiushiwojia because: (no reason given)

Similarly, venus fly-traps are not frogs.
