Our blood is literally vital. It carries nutrients and oxygen around the body and takes away waste. Blood is seen as sacred in many religions; it is the ‘seat of the soul’ which is why it must be drained from any meat in the Islamic and Jewish faiths. And, of course, blood is a little different from animal to animal and may be adapted to their special needs. The camel, for example, has special blood cells that allow it to survive sudden, dramatic changes of temperature typical in the desert at dawn and dusk. Some animals also have a kind of natural anti-freeze in their blood to resist sub-zero temperatures.
