That's highly unlikely in most cases. Not to mention, I mean, eating beef is, again, literally against the point of vegetarianism. Also do people actually use mice traps? I've never seen a mouse unless it was in a tiny cage.

I was talking about for personal usage. I'm aware of its usage in farming. Worth noting, too, small rodents and birds are - generally speaking - considered less important than more intelligent animals by most. Most of it is about /minimisation/ of harm, though.

Do you have some reason to believe that a mouse is less intelligent or capable of suffering than a cow? My understanding is that an individual mouse is *more* neurologically sophisticated than a cow.

No clue what you mean by “this”, or “prey morality”. Although it sounds suspiciously likely to be Neo-Nietzschean “might makes right” meta-ethic.

The scale is not similarly to me, the scale is an objective measure of complexity / sophistication. Humans happen to be the highest such being on this planet at the moment. But, denial of such an objective measure works well with the implied “power-only” moral relativism.

which end of the scale you consider more important reveals the way similarity to you was snuck in the back way
