Reply to comment by KRed75 in What would food look like if we could scale up lab grown meat? by sandcrawler56

Chickens eat insects and scorpions. If we stopped eating chicken meat, chickens would still exist outside of zoos.

Where did I say they wouldn't exist outside zoos? I said the only place we'd see them was in a zoo. Because they'd be so rare in the wild that you'd have to go to a zoo to see them. The only place I've ever seen a giraffe or an elephant or a lion or a tiger or a bear is in a zoo but they still exist outside zoos.

Chickens aren't that rare outside of zoos. I've seen wild chickens before.

There's no such thing as a wild chicken except for in Asia where they originated. Chickens were introduced to the world from Asia. They are considered feral chickens. I've never seen a feral chicken in 48 years. I've only seen a farm chicken running that escaped from his coop and lived at my kids' school for a few years until it died.
