    Does something uncompassionate have to be done to a human in order for it to be inhumane? Couldn’t it also be done to non-human animals/any sentient beings?

        Not by most people’s standards unfortunately… slaughterhouses and farms exist and are labeled “humane” despite both harming and killing animals
