I'm not going to comment on pros or cons of who eats what animals for 
what reason. However, in some islands in the Pacific - probably other 
places people used (and I suspect in some still do) eat people.

According to the argument below that's okay?

Ah, the slope that gets so slippery.

What we eat and what we slaughter for food is an issue of ethics - and 
the ethics is tied up in culture. Cultural ethics do change and evolve 
over time. Society is always making laws based on the ethical 
considerations of the social moral culture. I don't see this issue going 
away anytime soon nor do I see a consensus on it.
