This is a really good example of how we control our physiology even though it is "natural". For example women are able to have children at a very young age and have evolved to have as many children as possible. This however would significantly worsen overpopulation, and significantly decrease the quality of women's lives. It was the invention of the contraceptive pill that really gave women control of their lives, and was instrumental in supporting gender equality. Yet by the of the naturalistic argument the many meat eaters use, using the contraceptive pill would be wrong, our population would be out of control, and women's lives would be significantly worse.
