-fruit and vegetables
obviously I skipped a few species.. but the general idea is you draw a line somewhere on that list and only eat the animals below it. Of course, the actual nutritional value of the animal is important too. You can feed a lot more people by taking 1 cow life than taking 1 dog life. And if you're starving, then you can't afford to make moral choices.

I've always heard that pigs are smarter than dogs. We eat pigs but not dogs. Why would intelligence be a criteria for murder?
