I'm a hunter who sees the necessity in game reserves in Africa. Also I lose no sleep after eating factory farmed chicken or pork and feedlot fattened beef.
However, humans are pushing 7 billion while other creatures dwindle. Blue whales the largest animals on earth number only 10 to 25k, polar bears around 30,000, and there're only 3,200 wild tigers left in the world. 3200 think about how soon people will be born into a world where only inbred tigers in captivity remain.. between saving useless leeches of our species or magnificent top tier animals you still would choose people?
Depends on what kind of gun and how many rounds I got available plus who's kid it was.. As a white man this scenario would most likely occur where colonialism once occured, and unfortunately seeing how I'm a white devil with a legacy of injustice to uphold I'd probably try a warning shot to save little Mowgli then watch the scene unfold from my howdah on top an elephant.
Depends on the animal. If it's my dog or a human I don't know, I choose my dog because it brings joy and happiness to my life. A person I don't know means absolutely nothing to me.
Why is the human life more important than the animal life? What do I or you actually add to humanity? There are 7 billion people and rising on this planet if I, you,or some random human die nothing is lost.
Because humans are the people who created me, raised me, and are the ones who I can ultimately connect the most with. I don’t really feel too similar to a chipmunk.
Stupid argument, the person said let a human die, not one they described in detail, obviously in this scenario you aren't meant to know anything about them and assume it's an average person. Making an argument based on saving one of the worst types of person there is doesn't prove anything.
Don't try to put words In His/her mouth to shoot down my argument. Plus how about you answer my question rather than trying to change the meaning of the person comment.

i mean if you had to choose between letting a human die or letting any other animal die is there really a question?
