Great ad, but is it a confirmation that fishes have no soul?

In France, fish isn't usually considered "meat" (viande).

In my child's school, there are only three dietary choices for the kids who eat at the canteen:

* No pork / sans porc (for the muslim or jewish children)

* No meat / sans viande (but there's still fish!)

* Everything

But the film mentioned "if you didn't you eat everyone", it wasn't talking about meat.

"Everyone" can reasonably be understood to only apply to "people/animals like those present here"

If we're pedantic on the phrasing, the wolf could have already satisfied the demand by keeping a meat-based diet that simply excluded hedgehogs. Then he wouldn't eat everyone, just those who aren't a hedgehog. But the spirit of the complaint was clearly "everyone here is running away because they are personally afraid of being eaten". Which only included mammals and maybe some birds
