I think it is fair to point out that our health issues related to obesity generally happen later on than our life expectancy ever allowed for before modern medicine.
Lots of animals don’t even make it to 40 years old so how can you even say this is *not* a problem for them?
In a way its like saying obesity doesn’t cause heart problems as long as you die of other causes first?
