I already know some vegetarian recipies and will consider going vegetarian, but vegan no.

1080 (or Sodium Fluoroacetate) is a common pesticide used on insects and mammals in the U.S., New Zealand and Australia; the truth is it was developed by the nazi military chemists to wipe out towns by poisoning water supplies. No I am not making this up. Even they cancelled development because it was far too dangerous for them to use; a single teaspoon is more than enough to kill 100 people. The use of the poison has been banned in many countries as it is seen as a threat to national security. It dissolves easily in water. It has no smell, no taste and no antidote - ingestion is followed by a slow agonising death sometimes lasting for 10 hours or more, and if anything tries to touch or consume the flesh of a posioned victim they are poisoned too.
Also, of the cattle bred for consumption in Australia 70% will be exported to other countries, some who's slaughter practices are nothing short of barbaric all for the sake of religious belief (beaten to death or death by numerous non-fatal incisions). Regarding live transport (again Australia statistic)- up to 21% of the animals on a cargo ship will die in transit due to dehydration, cramped conditions and psychological trauma. I don't support the animal racing industries either, the dogs and horses that didn't make the cut will be unceremoniously shot. Some argue that the ones that make the grade are treated well, but that's only when they are seen as beneficial to the ones sponsoring them. Ex-race horses have horrific injuries physically and mentally, they are put through hell for someone's greed and pride. Don't get me started on the Iditarod.

Seriously, they work as a team - males and females... and yet the male lion does practically nothing.
