Vegetarians or Vegans?

Good point Boogies. Native American hunters did that very thing. European traders found it odd that Indian hunters would speak to the fallen prey after the chase. In a couple of recorded instances, we know they were thanking the spirit of the animal for its gift. We could probably do the same I guess, but it would be eaisier if we had an up close relationship with our meat (caught or raised ourselves).
