https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-aggression_principle

The NAP is an ethical stance that aggression is inherently wrong. "Aggression" is defined as initiating or threatening any forcible interference with an individual or individual's property.

So, libertarians and anarcho-capitalists will say that the NAP applies to humans.

Does it apply to animals?

If not, name the trait.

If so, go vegan.

What about creatures that don't comprehend morality? Say a retard doesn't comprehend morality, can I eat the retard?

Go for it - but of course we have the law providing additional disincentive there.

Species extinction is something quite different. But animal rights/suffering is an extremely low priority for me while the world is full of human rights abuses and human suffering. An extreme case of putting the cart before the horse.
