there is always the theoretical side of things and the practical ..
theoretical no human has any right to kill an animal
pratical we do it anyway cause its an easy way to get some food.
only for some creatures i would argue that its more pratical to not kill them. for example whales, cause there is no benefit in extermination ..
the problem with most of the discussions about this topic is, that people dont like this practical approach, they want a deeper reason for not killing whales for example.
and if they follow this deeper reason the outcome is everytime, that no animal should be killed, not only whales ..
but that would make them all murders everyday .. so they think further and come up with that intelligence argument. not knowing that this argument brings even more serious trouble..
people have to accept that they do moraly wrong things everyday and are mentally not strong enough to stop it
