It seems in most of these though that the animal rights people cause the problem rather than it being apparent that through their action their only releasing something that was made by scientists. In 28 Days Later, the Animal Rights extremeists as they are portrayed are used to cuase the epidemic and I think it's the same for 12 Monkeys. Dr Moureu though is an excellent one

| Right from the start, everyone knew that Mr. Spock was a vegetarian, like all Vulcans. Yes, okay, Vulcans began as a warring, violent race, but they saved themselves from destruction by adopting a philosophy of logic and nonviolence. The nonviolent ethic is captured in the Vulcan credo of IDIC, the Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combination, asserting that the glory of creation lies in its diversity and in the many ways those differences combine to create meaning and beauty. Extinction is anathema under the IDIC philosophy, and it is no more logical to kill another species for food than it is to hunt it to extinction. This credo he reveals in "All Our Yesterdays," "City on the Edge of Forever," "The Enterprise Incident," and the cartoon "The Slaver Incident." |

| Although the vast majority of contemporary Vulcans are vegetarians by choice, Vulcans were omnivorous for most of the time prior to the time of Surak. The only Vulcans that eat meat nowadays are certain outcasts, a very small cultural sub-group in the southern hemisphere of Vulcan and some inhabitants of distant Vulcan colonies. The Romulans, descended from Vulcan exiles, also are omnivorous. Most Vulcans will eat meat in situations where not to do so would be a cultural insult in "alien" surroundings and, of course, in survival situations where whatever food is available must be eaten. They find these situations logical, though distasteful. Some contemporary Vulcans will eat replicated meat, as they consider it only patterned after real meat, and not the actual flesh of a creature, whereas many Vulcans will eat no meat real or replicated. An extremely small minority group of Vulcans is so militantly vegetarian, that they would rather die than eat the flesh of another living thing. A few members of this very small faction have even been known to commit terroristic acts against producers and suppliers of meat for consumption. |

The Vulcans. A logical and peaceful people, a race of vegetarian philosophers.
Centuries ago, in order to ensure they would not destroy themselves from barbarism, they cast out their emotions and embraced the philosophical teachings of Surak.
"Logic is the cement of our civilization with which we ascend from chaos, using reason as our guide." |
