As you start to list properties that the animal lacks to justify eating them, you begin to realize that some humans also lack those properties, yet we don’t eat those humans. Is this logical proof that killing and eating animals for food is immoral? Don’t put away your steak knife just yet.
In Eat Meat… Or Don’t, we examine the moral arguments for and against eating meat with both philosophical and scientific rigor. This book is not about pushing some ideological agenda; it’s ultimately a book about critical thinking.

I would say that this simply is an assertion rather than an fallacious argument. However, this assertion can be a result of the historian's fallacy (see https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/tools/lp/Bo/LogicalFallacies/103/Historian-s-Fallacy<>).
