The "canine teeth" that we have are not for eating animals. Animals who have real canines use them to capture their prey. I don't think anyone could deny that ours are wholly insufficient for that. It is generally agreed that they are more likely for hard shelled nuts, etc.

I think one large benefit if the meat industries where to suddenly go out of business is the positive environmental impact it would have. For example, rainforests are currently being cut down to clear land to support these animals at an astounding rate.
