Why are some animals considered taboo to eat

Hello there guys I am guessing most of my viewers in America typically love their beef and pork meals, but this is not the case for everyone. All around the world, cultures and societies have taboos and practices that limit what animals they can eat. In this short little video, I will attempt to discuss the possible anthropological explanations of why certain animals namely pigs and cows are considered taboo to eat in some cultures. Special thanks to Mr. Beat for collaborating with me on this video I think he s really awesome and makes terrific history video content (And he s really nice too ) Definitely check out his companion video discussing taboos associated with Cats, Dogs, and Horses over on his channel: Background Music by by Twin Musicom
