I'm sure a pig knows when it is hungry and knows when it is full. I suspect an antelope knows the lion that is chasing him intends to eat him.

The tough question for me is....would I eat that monkey?
I would
It's not immoral to eat meat, abort a fetus or love someone of the same sex...I think that about covers it
