Dear, i am not a vetinary census officer. You are only depending on what u have read/seen. People eat the Darnest things.
Besides, how many carnivorous animals do you know walk the streets that humans do not eat? The rest are preety wild/in thick bushes.all the same. Ask urself, why are carnivores not always consumed by humans?
It might be dangerous to eat some carnivore, but so far, i have not seen anyone who has suffered from eating dog meat.

I'm sorry, you missed the part were I said "commonly eaten". Sharks and snakes do not fall into that category.

Carnivorous fish only make up 10% of the world's fish species. Of those, the only ones that actually eat MAMMALS, rather than other fish, are sharks and killer whales. Which are, again, not commonly eaten.

Frogs are, again, not commonly eaten, but the only "animals" it eats are insects. So they are only carnivorous in the most technical way. They don't eat mammals or other amphibians.

So, sorry, try again.


Look, if you like to eat dog, no one's stopping you. But it's bizarre. There's a reason why humans don't naturally eat carnivorous animals unless they have no choice.

Miss Meiya it might interest you to know that in addition to snacking on dogs, otherwise known as man's best friend, quite a few Nigerians enjoy eating human flesh, which is available but hidden from view in Ogunpa Market, Ibadan and in Oyingbo Market in Lagos, where human meat is known variously as "Eran Oniyo" (Salted Meat) or "M'enu'mo" (Hide your Mouth), among aficionados.

Moving to the Cross River area of Nigeria, where dog meat is coincidentally regarded as a treasured delicacy, the market of Ob'Anang is a renowned outlet for both fresh and smoke dried human meat. Patrons to the Ob'Anang market generally walk about the stalls there holding very sharp machetes as they do their grocery shopping, in order to serve notice that they are there to buy meat, and not to become meat.

So, I guess the upshot of my small digression here is that there are far more intense eating habits practiced in Nigeria than merely gobbling down some dog meat now and then.

Just accept that different cultures have different attitudes towards eating animals. Just smile when you see 404 errors. This ain't the dog you're looking for

What does this have to do with anything I said? I never said dog is the most bizarre thing eaten in Nigeria, did I?

And besides, am I supposed to be impressed by cannibalism in my country? I find that more than bizarre, but repulsive and abhorrent.

When did I say the opposite? Remind yourself what I said, in the beginning, and since then.

Many cultures have very bizarre and morally questionable practices. What does that have to do with the original conversation?

The only thing I did was disprove the argument that eating dog is like eating any other animal that human eat.

So eat the dogs, if you like. But it's not normal.

At least Nigerian dog meat eaters share their passion with the Koreans who offer various mouth-watering recipes featuring Fido and the odd domestic feline, but Koreans resident in Nigeria have shown some real creativity in their discovery of yet another culinary treat that even Nigerians look down upon with disgust, and that is your lowly agama lizard, often seen in social groups sunning themselves along the walls of city buildings. Koreans in Nigeria reportedly cook up the humble agama lizards into dishes that would be hard to resist in any fine restaurant, though I hasten to add that I don't speak from direct experience, at least not that I know of.

they are different species...one is CANINE the other is HUMAN, not knowing the difference would be your downfall.
Now that you seem to act smart. Are cow and chicken canine? Please, stop begging the question. The fact that you couldn't differentiate humans as animal from dogs makes it clear you still cannot differentiate chicken and cow from dogs. I still stand by my words. Eating dogs is like practicing cannibalism.

PapiWata: The man at least died as a hero among lovers of dog meat, known in his neck of the woods as "Ebuwa" meat. Matter of fact it would not be surprising at all if the victim of this dhoggie dinner comes to be remembered with reverence and fondness, as a veritable patron saint of dog meat eaters in Calabar, Nigeria and beyond.

This die-hard lover of dog meat did not let his enthusiasm to score a free meal of his favorite dish be dampened by the high risk of poisoning with the same powerful insecticide used to kill the dog he elected eat as "punishment" for bad behavior.

Well, all told, it is indeed a dog-eat-dog world out there, though I am, well, dogged and hounded by the troubling thought that the consuming love for one's favorite dish can in fact be a far GREATER motivating force for some special people, than the very will to live, whereby hard-core connoisseurs of filet-dogghie would willingly consume dog stew made from a poisoned animal, as a means of demonstrating their single-minded dedication to a cause.
Now that, ladies and mentalmen, is an illustration of true loyalty and faithfulness to a Higher Calling, literally to one's last breath.

Long live the Late Eater of Dog, for he is now at the right hand of God, devouring yet more dog stew from a golden, diamond-studded chalice, up beyond the sky.

MissMeiya: How about you look it up. Dogs are intelligent animals. Cows are not. Chicken are not. Just look it up. It's science. You accuse me of sentiment but just LOOK at your reply to my two sentence statement. Obviously you are WAY more sentimental about this than I am.

again, dog are OBEDIENT they sure aint smart.....but hey, they day you find a dog solving a problem then holla at me. dogs are as dumb as a cow....... but hey, if you spend enough time with a cow, you can probably teach it to SEAT, FETCH and ATTACK, lol!

Secondly, why didn't you address the carnivorous argument?

whats there to address? if you smart OR had educated yourself on the issue, you would have know that dog are exactly the same as PIG...which is OMNIVORE, duh!

So you don't know how to use google, huh? Every single thing in this paragraph (and I use the term loosely), is incredibly false. This is guessing. This is opinion. Not a FACT that you can actually use your fingers and brains to research. So, sorry, don't try again.

Did you just say dogs are omnivores? Have you heard of Google? It's a search engine. It's pretty cool. You should try it. Pigs are "omnivorous" in the way that frogs are "omnivorous". Because they eat INSECTS. Not other mammals. Good job at demonstrating your complete ignorance of life science.

Looks like you have a memory problem. I made the original assertion, that dogs are intelligent. Remember? YOU disagreed. Therefore the onus is on YOU to do the debunking. With actual facts and credible science, instead of your (unimpressive) suppositions.

I haven't introduced a lick of sentiment into this discussion. My argument has been completely logical from the beginning. You were the one who took offense and started frothing at the mouth.

Unfortunately for you, vets have changed their previous classification of dogs due to new studies of dog physiology. What school did you attend? They should update their textbooks.

lol again using your sentiments as "facts and credible science".....give me ONE, just one credible scientific proof why men shouldnt eat dog meat. if telling us all that "dog are men's best friend" is your facts and credible science then i guess people who are eating dog and enjoying it, all over the world, are from mars.

sadly, the person who are here trying to impose their narrow minded views, because of their sentiments towards dog, is you. let each and everyone decide what they want to eat, regardless of what YOU or anyone believes. its THEIR stomach, THEIR appetite, and THEIR money. if you dont like dog, so be it DONT EAT IT, lol but stop trying to make people believe that eating dog meat is wrong!

just because "some schools" have done so shouldnt be a reason to believe that all have changed their +1000s of years stand on the fact that dog are omnivores... what you wrote would be as clueless as telling us that Lions eating human meat is wrong, while it is perfectly NORMAL.
