In Buddhism, animals are seen basically as equal to humans, as you acquire negative karma from killing, regardless of species. For example, a fox hunter could easily be reborn as a fox. Another question people ask is, are all Buddhists vegetarians? I am, but no, it's not compulsory, but you would gain positive karma from being vegetarian. However, in regions like Tibet, yak meat in particular is a staple food, and it would be impossible, or indeed extremely difficult, to cut meat out of your diet entirely. Although eating meat is considered okay, you shouldn't actually order it from a butchers or whatever, because this may result in an animal being killed directly to meet your requirement. I don't know about the stances of any other faiths on this. Could someone else please add something?
