The animals didn't consent either and will also die.

Death is an integral part of life.

You can argue, because the concept and notion of consent is exists and is understanble by us, humans, we are burdened with the task of safeguarding those who can not understand it.

Many die, unwillingly, unknown, unnamed, for others to live. It's an unchanging law of nature.

We can and should, are morally obligated to, curtail the cruelty that still holds our reality together. It is wrong but exists and, to a degree, is necessary as reality exists today.
