When Shaun, a carpet fitter, saved Trigger he had no idea his new black and white friend would grow up to his magnificent size. Trigger's enormous weight means he could potentially make 7,665 Big Macs or even 6,137 Burger King Whoppers. But family pet Trigger lives a life far removed from that of your average livestock. Instead he enjoys a relaxed lifestyle in a field at Kingswood, Herefordshire, where he eats a daily diet of grass, cattle cake,...

You don’t need to be a physician, a nutritionist, or even have a fancy degree to understand why humans eat meat. Just check the teeth in your mouth. There are 20 of them devoted to eating meat, but only 12 for fruit and vegetables. If you are inclined to examine the human body further, you will discover, as Dr. Max Ernest Jutte, MD, pointed out in 1936, "the stomach is a carnivorous organ designed primarily to digest lean meat, and that the small intestine, pancreas, and liver are mainly herbivorous and designed to digest vegetables, fruits, fats, and farinaceous (starch)...
