I see now why we aren't connecting. You seem focused on what the dead animal's flesh can do for you.
I am focused on what I can do for the animal.

To do xyz for the sake of polarizing is inherently a self-serving act.
The irony is, that compassion is required to polarize STO.
In other words, to have compassion just because it's required to polarize, isn't really compassion. (Although we have to start someplace, and making the choice is the first step.)

Again, you seem focused on what it will do for you.
In my view, compassion is something that is extended to all beings. Why turn it on for humans but turn it off for animals? Why must it be an 'either/or'? Why not feel compassion for both?
If I see an animal crying out in fear and pain, I cannot fathom being hardened to its suffering.
The Christianity I was raised with taught that animals don't have souls, so it doesn't matter what happens to them. I have met many Christians who consider animals 'property' and don't want to 'waste' any of their 'compassion' on 'mere lowly creatures who will be extinguished anyway, for lack of a soul.'
