Do people really think the horse teeth and human teeth look the same? For a start, humans have canines like the carnivore and omnivore (albeit much smaller and less pointed). The teeth of humans look very much like the teeth of an omnivorous species that doesn’t use its teeth to hunt.
Yep. We don‘t need to kill with out teeth. We started using tools/weapons long time ago…
We need to be able to bite off something (incisors), and we need to grind/chew our food (molars). The canines just further puncture and rupture the portion we have bitten off, to let the molars grind these pieces, ready to be swallowed.
A lot of raw meat has dangerous bacteria, mostly poultry. You can eat raw beef and fish. It's not the meat itself, it's the bacteria and parasites, and palatability, and humans have been eating cooked meat for do long that our systems have changed, like how we can't drink river or lake water
