:mother-nature: I'm sorry but
the carnism will stop.
before vegans get excited they can still generally eat chicken. for some reason they all want boneless chicken thighs (i work at a place that sells food). we can tell when it's a "tick people" order
Well, well shit.
Then again vegans know, that only not eating meat does a vegan make...
oh darn what a shame
Nature ummm... finds a way.
Hell of a layup for some sort of presumably christian group to claim this is god sending a plague on account of the crimes we do to animals but i'm sure they'll all just squander this
Is that so? 💅
Meh more ticks here as well, the mosquitoes that transmit dengue fever are also here now. I love climate change 😀
So who is going to breed these and seed them on cattle ranches?
They already do that by themselves. Long grass and cattle are perfect tick breeding ground
Why on ranches? The ticks affect people not cows. Surely it would be more effective to put them where the meat is consumed rather than produced
Ranchers that cant eat beef would have an identity crisis and quit
And so will be them!
It isn't an allergy to all meat though... the meat from primates are safe for people with Alpha-gal Syndrome. Time to invest in monkey farms.
Lol you know that the freaks will probably just start eating people.
Maybe a meat cessation drug can be derived from them. A meat Zyban.
