Why were animals created? At the start, they were not even intended as human sustenance.
How did Kayin and Hevel come to the idea of sacrifice?
There are, still animals who are not edible and not sacrificial -- they begin as babies, they grow, choose mates, pro-create -- are they only here for us to observe with our high consciousness -- or do they have a significant reality of their own?
I ask because God surely has a purpose for every effect of His -- and are we allowed assurance and awareness of it? Why are animals here?

Fur coats, leather belts, crocodile-skin boots and insulin.

They read the Artscroll book on the subject.

Like university students
> they begin as babies
And some of them are even cute.

University students often omit the middle step.
> are they only here for us to observe with our high consciousness
I told you - cool boots and belts.
> or do they have a significant reality of their own?
Yes, of course they're completely aware. That's why cows just stand there when you come at them with a knife.

And don't forget well-grilled steak.
> Why are animals here?
Mostly because the university is up the street so this is where all the cheap rooms for rent seem to be.
