Line 160:
*** [[Did Not Do the Research]], Bears are Omnivores.
* [[Did Not Do the Research|Incredibly epic fail]] in ''Pride'' which shows a vegan lioness doing pretty well until both plant and animal are depleted in the 'badlands' area where she lives after running away from her parents for them trying to force her to obey her carnivorous nature. Its essentially vegan propaganda aping the appeal of the flood of lion movies after. Also Sean Bean as a big macho lion badass probably didn't hurt funding either. In the end the entire [[What Happened to the Mouse?|vegan subplot]] vanishes to make way for a more traditional good lion/evil lion showdown as the lions from the badlands attempt to take over the heroine's pride.
* The ''[[Over the Hedge (animation)|Over the Hedge]]'' cast don't seem to take into account the source of all the food items they take. [[Everything Is Worse With Bears|Vincent]] threatens to kill RJ and [[
* An in-movie bit in ''[[Babe]]'', when Farmer Hogget somehow assumes Babe killed the sheep.
* ''[[How to Train Your Dragon (animation)|How to Train Your Dragon]]'' had the giant Green Death dragon swallow an unfortunate Gronckle who failed to give it enough food. This is hardly surprising since alot of animals have no qualms eating other animals related to them such as cobras eating other snakes, lions eating cheetahs, etc.
Line 392:
* ''[[Doc Rat]]'' [http://www.docrat.com.au/comic/regarding-the-meat-truck/ Regarding the Meat Truck].
* ''[[The Kenny Chronicles]]'' seems to avert this, herbivorous [[Funny Animal|Tarneki]] seem to have no problem with their non-anthro cousins being on the menu.
* In ''[[Horndog]]'', Tommy, a rat, and Leonard, a cat, engage in a conversation about Tommy's fear of being eaten. Also, a recent storyline involves Charlene becoming romantically involved with a Jewish lesbian mouse, which gives new meaning to the phrase "[[
* Played [http://www.housepetscomic.com/2008/10/03/stop-the-revolution-i-want-to-get-off/ very straight] in ''[[Housepets]]''.
* In ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' Trog tries very hard to stop Aylee (an alien like from, you know, ''[[Alien]]'') from eating humans. The cast at one point have an intervention for her in which she eats John a man who went through cannibals anonymous. A strip later Torg enrolls her in the program. She eventually stops eating humans just in time for Riff and Torg to get trapped in the 1999 annual cannibal convention. Torg realizes trying to change Aylee's nature is pointless and unleashes Aylee on the cannibals this fails but they all survive due to a damn heroes moment. ironically a few arcs later Aylee transforms into a dragon that eats potatoes nullifying the whole process. As far as we know she hasn't eaten humans since.
Line 424:
** Coming at it from another direction, there are characters who pointedly avoid transforming into livestock...
* The ''[[Futurama]]'' episode, "The Problem With Popplers" has addresses this several times. First, there's a bunch of hippies trying to enforce vegetarianism. Leela points out eating meat is a part of nature, and the hippies point to a lion they taught to eat tofu. It's sickly and looks like it'll fall over dead at any second. Also the main characters casually bring up a few animals they eat in the future that are not usually thought of as food here in the present, such as parrots.
** The real [[
*** "When my species grows up, we eat our moms!"
* Interpersonal relationships in some children's series sometimes get a little...odd...if adults think about them too long. For instance ''[[Franklin]]'', where the cute turtle and goose and rabbit are bestest buddies with the equally cute bear and fox, or ''Little Bear'', in which the titular hero hangs out with a duck and a chicken...and a cat, and an owl. (Also a human girl, but that's a [[Furry Confusion|whole 'nother story]]...)
