If you divide 16,000 into 15,000,000, you will get that your year
consists of 1000 days. What planet are you from?

In any case, of these 16,000 children who die per day, how many die of
sheer starvation an dhow many die from malnutrition, i.e., from the
lack of proteins and other nutrients in their diet? Or how many
children have their stomachs bloating because of too much grain food
and not enough protein?

Meat is an essential part of the diet for humans and many other apes.
In fact, humans lost body fur precisely for the purpose of having the
cooling-off endurance to outrun their animal prey.
