Because those are the ones that look cute and are harmless to humans. Same bullshit with that arbitrary line of which animal is considered food and which is supposed to be cherished.

I would argue against that since mostly farm animals are easier to contain and work well with our bodies. I can't think of any other mammal so easy to consume, yet delicious as well. It's just I don't think eating a lion would be as delicious as a lamb or as easy even if there were more lions. Farm animals are our natural prey. But you're right cuteness=/=remarkable in my book

Cows and pigs were domesticated and didn't look like they did today. They've been extensively bred to be as useful as they are today. If we used deer or dogs like that they would probably be close to pigs and cows today. But it's not like the efficiency of the food source should be a deciding factor in what is ok to eat and what not. I mean we eat potato chips despite being less than favorable as nutrition. Dogs and cats might have less meat on their bones but it's still meat. It's all just arbitrary lines drawn by arbitrary morals.

People say they care about animals and then turn around and squash the next mosquito they see.
