      They eat them. But there is no need to do so. It’s a tradition.

      Source: Britannica.

      This source also highlights the hypocrisy of saying that there’s a focus on animal welfare.

        There is no need to eat any animal and yet as a society we seem to have no problem with mass meat industry. Now, I don’t disagree that there is hypocrisy in saying there is a focus on welfare, but I also feel some hypocrisy in there being outrage on some particular animals being eaten while other animals being eaten is fine.
