The comedian Denis Leary had a routine where he'd discuss the animals worth saving from extinction, like otters and baby seals and dolphins...you know, all the cute ones. But a cow? Grind it up and grill it, baby, I'm hungry! A pig? We're having sausage for breakfast!

The Drúedain are like that. Ummm...sort of.
