RajneeshSuppose I grant that pigs and dogs are self-aware to some degree, and do have thoughts about things in the future. That would provide some reason for thinking it intrinsically wrong to kill them - not absolutely wrong, but perhaps quite a serious wrong.

For those animals, you haven't given me any reason why painless killing would be wrong, if other animals take their place and lead an equally good life.
