However, in terms of economic and social development, forbidding consumption of animal products altogether is not necessarily sound advice. Some species may become overpopulated without control, which can interfere with people's daily lives. Take kangaroos in Australia for example. In the 1990s, the overpopulation of kangaroos had seriously reduced the crop yield and caused traffic problems until the government allowed some people to hunt kangaroos for their meat. As a matter of fact, appropriate consumption of non-endangered species as sources of food and clothing would not damage the ecosystem. On the contrary, it can help to promote healthy interaction between humans and the wildlife. For example, a reasonable amount of daily intake of animal products can strengthen our immune system, which can protect us against contagious diseases. In summary, even though I agree that the hunting of endangered species should be banned, I would argue that the benefits of using non-endangered animals as sources of food and clothing are still significant.
但是,就经济和社会发展而言,完全禁止动物性产品的消费并不一定是合理的建议。某些物种可能会因缺乏控制而过剩,这就会干扰人们的日常生活。以澳大利亚的袋鼠为例。20世纪90年代,袋鼠数量过剩,导致农作物产量严重下降,并造成了严重的交通问题,直到政府允许捕猎袋鼠作为食用肉后,这个问题才得到解决。 事实上,合理消费非濒危物种,将其作为食物和衣服来源,是不会破坏生态系统的。相反,这有助于促进人类和野生动物之间的良性互动。譬如,每日摄取适量的动物产品,可以增强我们的免疫系统,从而抵御传染性疾病。 总之,虽然我同意应禁止捕猎濒危动物,但我认为,将非濒危物种作为食物和衣服来源,仍然具有重大意义。
