I won't explain... it's all in the original article <a href="http://newsbox.msn.co.uk/article.aspx?a ... 2">here</a>!!

Well... I can honestly say because of Bambi, I won't eat deer. But nobody's going to take me away from hamburgers, steak, hot dogs, fried chicken / chicken nuggets, or various fish dishes.

Home on the Range didn't work then, eh Laz?

I heard this on the radio this afternoon and thought "What the hell?"

Even though Bambi didn't put me off meat, after I saw the Little Mermaid it certainly put me off fish!

Ironically, watching The Emperor's New Groove gave me a strong yearning to eat llama.

To be honest, it sort of made me want to eat up some more of 'em! You know, in my honest opinion, if all cows are so annoying like the ones in the movie, I'm kinda doing the world a favour by shuting them up.

Well after I saw Chicken Run I got addicted to chicken pies.

I bet movies like Chicken little, Animal Farm, and Charlotte's web made people eating more meat . I've heard people watching Madagascar went to Sizzler's after watching the movie . It'd be kinda weird if people watching Triplets of Belleville started either avoding or eating Frogs after watching that movie.

You know, I stopped eating spiders (a British delicacy) after reading Charlotte's Web. And humans after Jurassic Park.

Since my friend is a hunter, this is what he told me:

In the winter, it is very difficult for deer to find food! However when they do find food, the deer end up fighting each other to get it and eventually they both die with no deer eating the food. So in order to save the deer, all we have to do is kill them!

Kinda weird I know, but it's true!

As for cows, chicken and pigs, this is the way I look at it, THE ANIMAL IS ALREADY DEAD! So you might as well eat it!

wow...that´s kind of your friend...

Well...even when I have tried snake, ostrich and even monkey meat, I would never eat venison

Nop sire...I have a Bambi in my heart, but I´ll not have one in my belly

Although I'm going to miss meat terribly, I plan on being a vegetarian when I grow up and start living on my own. In Grade 8, I wrote a speech on vegetarianism and the horrors of factory farming (I know, I know, it was hypocritical since I'm not actually a vegetarian, but the topic interested me!), and what I found out deeply affected me. The way the animals are treated is absolutely appalling, and I don't think we should promote factory farms by eating their products.

Well, I'm a vegan (it means I don't eat anything that comes from animals), but no Disney movie influenced me to become one. That was just basic morality, and maybe a little bit of influence from my friendship with my beloved cat, Prodigy. I do love how Disney movies with animal characters tend to give people a different perspective on how animals aren't just here to feed us.

The weirdest meat I've eaten was a chicken heart. I had it in Brazil back when I was 10. Tasted kind of like beef. I've had venison, I think...when I was on an airplane to Paris. Poor Bambi.

Vegan food really isn't as bad as everyone thinks it is. I rarely even eat vegetables! They taste awful. I baked some chocolate chip cookies and my mom (vegetarian) really liked them. They taste like the kind I would make years ago, but without eggs and milk..so no cholesterol.

Ironically enough being a hunter and all I have never ate deer meat either. I've just never gone deer hunting... yet.
I mean c'mon I love Bambi but I go hunting and yet people turn vegetarian over that?

I tried the 2 links to read the article about Mc Cartney but they don't lead to the articles... must have moved them by now.

Well this is a tough subject because I love animals but I I still eat meat although when I do it is mostly chicken or turkey. At Thanksgiving this year I felt very bad about it - a mass slaughter of turkeys is all I could think about this year....

About 6 mos ago while out in Vernon, I had to drive by the Farmer John's factory and it has this beautiful mural on the walls surrounding the plant and it is pictures of pigs frolicing in a fenced barnyard; I got so upset that I have vowed not to each any pig products ever again... but as much as I feel really bad about animals and the whole animal husbandry thing, I find it hard to have a backbone and become a vegetarian.

I've never eaten deer and definitely would never eat a deer. Here in So. Calif. deers are not thought of in the same league as cows (therefore we have steak houses but no restaurants serving deer meat). When I was a kid, there was a park in Orange County off the 5-freeway called "Japanese Deer Park" that was a small place with live deer you could go visit. I think Californians have a strong reverence for deer and would not eat deer.

Agreed! I eat next to no seafood because of TLM, and the thought of eating flounder or crab makes me cringe. Finding Nemo sort of reaffirmed this...fish ARE friends, not food!

ummmmmmmmmmmmm SUSHIIIIIIIIIIII!!! Can't say no to SUSHI!!

Sushi is disgusting! Whether it has fish in it or not, I do not like sushi. I don't believe in eating seaweed....eyuck!

I never liked fish, so when I first became a vegetarian, I gave it up right away. Not like there was much to give up..I probably ate shrimp or crab twice a year at MOST. Seafood is disgusting.

I was heartbroken when I found out where gelatin came from...I gave up gummi bears, my favorite snack.

Marshmallow's made with veg. gelatin are a b****h to find.

That's the BS every hunter will tell you to justify his murdering of animals. What he described is the natural population control and humans should keep their fingers OUT of it. The way nature does it ensures survival of the fittest.

They wouldn't be dead, they wouldn't even be bred if everyone stopped eating them.

Ever since I saw The Little Mermaid in theaters in the 1997 re-release, I have refused to eat any seafood of any kind whatsoever. (Yes, seriously.) Home on the Range cannot make that claim, nor can any other film, but Little Mermaid can & did.
