Trophic levels being a thing mean that raising cattle, which get eaten by wolves, and you eating wolf meat causes you to kill 100 times the biomass of vegetables of what you eat in wolf biomass–which would be much more focused on killing plants.
on every step you lose about 90%. That’s the reason why being vegetarian by default uses less land for agriculture than eating meat.
well if you want to cherish the fact that every bite you take equals onehundred bites of veggies then eating wolf is better - you eating vegetables would then only increase the amount by 1%.
think big! imagine eating cannibals who eat human that eat wolves that eat cattle that eat plants! Alternatively we could put some polar bear into the chain to keep it fresh

Raise cattle and still be vegetarian for maximum efficiency!

What about eating the humans that eat wolves that eat cattle that eat the plants?

Don’t eat the liver tho. Polar bear liver contains so much vitamin A that it is toxic for humans.
But isn’t minmaxing the fun out of your game to chase the 1% damage increase exactly what RPGs are about?
this varies greatly. beef cattle is closer to 99% when you look at Calories.

Thanks for the info, i just repeated the number i learnt back in the introductory courses at university for trophic levels.
