The Torah (Old Testament) lists dietary laws that Jews follow. These are called Kosher laws. Some very observant Jews follow Kosher laws as well as a very small percentage of Christians. Kosher laws describe types of animals that are clean and able to be eaten. A kosher land animal must have split hooves and chew its cud. A sea animal must have gills, fins, and scales. Birds are more difficult, there is no real law, just types that are unclean. It is assumed that all Birds of Prey are unclean. There are other restrictions, such as not eating meat with dairy, not eating blood, and not eating thigh meat. Also, a food is only Kosher if the animal was killed humanly and with as little pain as possible. There are other small laws, but that is basically everything.
