Toronto: In a counter-protest of its own kind, the co-owner of a Toronto restaurant has responded to animal rights activists by cutting up a leg of deer in front of them, prompting reactions from the Twitter and other social media platforms.
A group of local Vegan protesters had arranged a protest in front of the restaurant Antler, known for serving "local seasonal and wild foods" that are native to Canada, such as bison, boar, rabbit, duck and deer.
Restaurant's co-owner and chef, Michael Hunter reportedly brought out an entire animal leg and started cutting it up right in the window on a table reserved for diners.
Chef Hunter received support from meat-eaters and vegans alike who supported his freedom to cut up a deer inside his own restaurant.
However, a few expressed displeasure of the chef's move.
"Super disappointed with how Antler restaurant in Toronto chose to respond to animal rights activists outside their restaurant #antler #animalrights #protest #love #respect," tweeted host of Bachelorette/Bachelor Canada Noah Cappe.
Vegans or being a vegan is similar to being a vegetarian in India. But most vegans refuse to eat all and any animal-related products including dairy products and choose this lifestyle due to their love for animals and animal rights.
