Reality TV survival expert Bear Grylls who shot to fame after `Man vs Wild` said that he killed "way too many animals" in his early days. Speaking to BBC 4, Grylls expressed his regret by proclaiming that he should not kill anymore animals and only eat dead animals instead, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I think in terms of survival and food, definitely in the early days we were killing way too many snakes and stuff like that in the name of survival. I`ve moved so far away from that nowadays. It`s always about finding carcasses, bugs and grubs. If you look at great survivors historically they were always the foragers "You go after the big game and you take too much risk and you burn too much energy." Grylls has taken inspiration from the surge in veganism and his experience with vegan stars on his shows who have altered his thinking towards eating meat.
