So I got into a conversation with someone whom I later found out was a nonbeliever, he says it is murder to kill and eat animals. I have been told by many christians that God put animals on the planet to be consumed by the human race. I know I have read in the past that God put animals and plants on this planet to be looked after by humans, does it say in the bible anything about God putting animals on this planet to be eaten?

thanks,
