However,
it would be perfectly feasable for a person or pack of people to chase and
kill cows,


I'd like to see that!


I presume you are under the misapprehension that cows are fleet of foot?


Certainly faster than humans, especially the tubby meat eaters who's
idea of exercise is looking through the McDonalds menu!


Have you ever seen the footage of primates hunting down a different
primate as a pack? The heavy stronger ones run up ahead and sit in
wait, whilst the small ones chase the prey towards the trap. When the
prey arrives the stronger primates jump on their prey and tear it
apart.


Isolated incidents and unusual.

How would you bring the cow down once you have caught? Tie it's
shoelaces up!.


Three people could easily bring a cow down.


Nonsense. They couldn't catch it let alone bring it down. I presume
your not talking about wild cattle, but the fat overweight ones penned
up?

A pack of a dozen people
could trap and kill a cow with little effort, leaving plenty of meat
for them all.


How long do you imagine it would take a human to break the skin with
it's bare teeth? Or has evolution supplied you with an electric knife
on your unnatural hunts?

I suppose your idea of evolution is Lions going into Ikea to buy
knives and forks?


Lions are not human beings and have not evolved in the same way.


Like us evolving to use rifles and knives and forks you mean? LOL


Using rifles is a natural progression from using spears, throwing
stones etc.


Both are unnatural which brings us back to the original point, we are
not meant to eat meat.
