On kid nation they showed Ethnocentrism by some of the animal lovers who didn't want to kill the chickens locking themselves in the chicken coop. They thought that killing the chickens seemed barbaric. After the council talked to the kids, they were more okay with the decision. Although they judged the kids who wanted to kill the chickens, they were able to understand the reasoning of killing them and eventually less against it.
The kids who are vegetarian believed killing the chickens went against their morals. Some of he younger kids also didn't understand the need of killing them so they to believed it was against their morals. They think that since they are "defenseless" animals and should be left alone. They also believe that eating meat is wrong too because that means that you have to kill an animal.
The kids all come from different subcultures. This caused some issues when they needed protein from meat. While they required the nutrients some kids believed it was wrong, such as vegetarians, because of their beliefs based on their subculture. The other kids from subcultures, such as farmers, were used to this and knew the importance of it to their town.
