To
eat, the Indians of the Amazon rain forest must hunt. However, they never take
from the forest more than what they need. We, too, kill animals to eat. We kill
cows, sheep, and pigs. And not always humanely. We also kill wild animals to
grace our walls with their heads or use their skins or tusks. We even kill
calves and lambs. The Indians never kill young animals. After hunting down
their mothers, they adopt them as lifelong pets, never to end as food. Women will
go as far as breast-feed the youngest animals.
