Famous Vegans Veganism

seems that most didn’t get my question about veganism and children as proof?
this was my question.

seems most thought about using children as advertising only.
i meant, using children as a “scientific” issue. Like the famous vegan flash on youtube, with the talking pig, about the baby, the apple and the rabbit.
do you agree, as a vegan, that if a child chooses to bite on the apple and play with the rabbit, it means it’s not meant to eat meat?
The picture linked shows a kid biting a dog, which practically means kids would bite/chew on anything.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05zhL1YUd8Q is the video in question.
Do you agree with that video? or is it half truths and cleverly used words/facts?
Lol.. infants will eat anything not moving but will play with anything animated. Babies have been known to (at least try to) eat their own crap, light bulbs, bottles, cigarette butts, hair brushes etc. They are also oral fixated which means if they get a hold of a rabbit, they will try to put it into their mouths eventually. A non reactive (inanimate) object will be mouthed by an infant because that is their most dominant sense at that stage of life. An apple is inanimate, a rabbit is not. However, notice that infant toys are designed and oriented around movement and sound. The more animated and noisy an object is, the more an infant will play with it UNTIL he/she decides to mouth it. Mobiles, rattles etc are all designed to attract an infants attention but eventually they will mouth their toys that’s why infants accessories by law, must be made with non toxic materials.
The whole video is the same hogwash pseudo scientific nonsense that pro vegetarian and vegan groups have relied on for years. But since there is very little reliable proof of their claims, they resorted to animated cartoons designed for for expert and professional scrutiny but for gullible children and (unfortunately) some adults as well.
Notice that the comparison always mentions “herbivores vs carnivores” which is ridiculous since humans are omnivores. Pig jaws and teeth, not cows or horses or bears or wolves have been mistaken for human teeth and vice versa in archaeological digs. The gall bladder which produces bile necessary for meat digestion is fully developed in omnivores like humans and carnivores but either missing or underdeveloped in herbivores. Finally, humans have consumed meat since the beginning, Hominids may have started out as fruit pickers but we are not them. Homo Sapiens into which hominids evolved into have always been omnivores.
