@Sacred Rebel Animals aren't ideological about their diets. Herbivores mainly eat plants and are adapted to that, but can still eat some meat if they get the opportunity (ie watch?v=sQOQdBLHrLk). Idk if they measured calories, proteins, vitamins or minerals, but the vole is going to be massively more nutritious on all of them, even after the buffalo have fermented the grass.

[@aldochavez7523]

@Sacred RebelWoah what!? Really hurt my brain reading this. First off the vole is going to be more nutritious than a quantity of grass of equal weight and thats an objective fact the matter whether or not the animal can access that said nutrition is a completely different matter. Second why are you making a comparison between hormones in men and women to diets and lifespans of animals?? It's a completely different biological process that has nothing to do with each other and the way you mentioned it makes no sense whatsoever. Yes, men and women both have hormones but the same hormones in same quantity? Uhh no absolutely not. And having hormones isn't solely responsible for reproductive processes, a man pumped full of estrogen and progesterone can't menstruate and have babies for the same reason why a woman pumped full of testosterone can't produce sperm and semen....they don't have any of the organs or more accurately the organ systems in place to do so. Third, while true that larger animals do typically live longer than smaller ones, the comparison between the lifespans of two completely different species is irrelevant when it comes to diet. A crocodile is completely carnivorous and yet it lives longer than the buffalo. If you want another example tortoises like buffalo are herbivorous but the tortoises have lifespans that are at least 3 times that of buffalo but tortoises are significantly smaller does that just mean that tortoises are overall healthier? (You can GOOGLE this if it makes you comfortable) No it doesn't. Lifespan is heavily based on genes and diet helps but not to a ridiculous degree as you might suggest. In the case with humans we're omnivores meaning plants and meat so eliminating meat completely can be detrimental to our health because doing so eliminates a good amount of vitamins and minerals from our diet (ex: iodine, B12, zinc, iron). So what we should be striving for is a balanced diet if you really want to be healthy. Next time leave your ignorance if you ever want to be objective otherwise just keep your mouth shut. Logic so flawed I wanted to kill myself 🙄

[@Hacktheplanet_]

Oh yeah why is it those measurements, britain uses Celsius

[@adolforodolfo6929]

@@Hacktheplanet_ I'm British and it's a fair question. We do indeed use Celsius and have done for decades now; the only people who might use Fahrenheit are now very old. As for other things, we are still far from completely "metric". There is a bit of a generational divide since schools do not teach/use imperial measures and have not done for decades, but there are still some things for which we tend to use imperial units, regardless of our age: human height is always in feet and inches, not metres; human weight in stones (rather than pounds); road distances in miles not kilometres and speed in miles per hour, not kilometres per hour - but we buy food/drink in kilos and litres (apart from beer in a pub, which is still served in pints, although if you buy it in a bottle in a supermarket the bottle will generally be 500ml.) P.S. maybe the reason for the use of Fahrenheit here is that the BBC makes money exporting these wildlife programmes to US TV channels - I don't know that, but the BBC never uses Fahrenheit these days in domestic programmes - and certainly not in weather forecasts/reports.
