In the Mahayana Buddhist traditions of China, Taiwan, Vietnam and Korea, meat-eating is prohibited. 

In others, such as in some Theravadin traditions and Tibetan Buddhism, meat-eating is acceptable.

Here, a brief comparison with Christianity is instructive. Christian authorities propose that God gave humans dominion over animals. For much of the history of Christianity, the suffering of animals has been ignored. Humans are seen as higher on the Chain of Being due to their having souls.

Having dominion does not mean kill them for foöd and fun, get this into your thick skull
