5. Meat eating. We can see that all the animals in the world that eat vegetable matter are rigid but strong – like the stag or the bull. On the other hand, carnivores like the dog, cat, wolf or lion are all much more agile and supple. I do not know the reason for this fact but it is a fact nevertheless. The Lapps are completely carnivorous creatures; they have no vegetable dishes and, if they eat a raw stalk of Angelica (as others eat an apple) or some sorrel leaves, it adds up to no more than 2 part in 2 000 000 in proportion to other food. They are carnivores because in spring they eat fish, in winter nothing but meat, in summer milk and milk products such as cheese. Salted food makes one heavy.
