[Ethics] Why do people condemn Zoophilia on the basis of other animal's inability to consent but those same people kill animals without asking for their consent? Why such inconsistency?

If you need for survival to hunt and eat an animal you are just part of the ecosystem, a predator.
Do you need to have sex with another species? In the wild it happens and even rape is natural, but the question could be "would you like to live in a human society like that?".

That said, animal farming is unethical and completely unnecessary nowadays. Most people would agree that killing an animal just for pleasure would be ethically wrong, but then we as a society rape to breed, grow in terrible conditions and kill in nightmarish ways farm animals just because "meat is good".

Pays off

I like ants. I paid 0.30€ per tube and I don't think I'll ever need to buy more, I use old plastic food containers, so free, I breed my ants' feeder insects...

I mean, there are many hobbies that can be dirt cheap or free. Do you like plants? Get free cuttings asking for them to your neighbor or any acquaintance, buy a little dirt and cheap pots. Do you like fishes or crustaceans? You don't need an expensive aquarium, you just need a really cheap food grade plastic tub. Do you like bikes? My bike is a cheap second hand one. Do you need a house? Forget it, you'll never be able to pay for one.
