Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most common reason for killing animals in the United States is for food production, with large numbers of cows, pigs, chickens, and turkeys raised and slaughtered for meat. While hunting is a popular activity, it is not the most common reason for killing animals in the United States. The use of animals for garments (such as fur) and research is not as common as their use for food.
