If you won’t take part in killing animals for training, can you still make it through?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has info about this predicament i’m in/the consequences of refusing to participate. I’ve thought about SF for awhile now. I wanted to give myself some time to reflect on it, and study every aspect of it, the good the bad and the ugly so I know what I’m getting myself into and be prepared for those moments of questioning if it’s worth it during the rigorous selection process. It’s been 2 years. and it’s still strongly on my mind. I’ve come to terms with everything from day 1 to graduation. I’m prepared to go through it all, at least I truly believe I can. but the one single thing that i’m struggling with is having to kill an innocent animal, whether it’s in SERE school, or any other part of it. I totally understand the reasoning for this in training, especially medics, and I have no problem killing for food If I, or others around me cannot survive without it. But it’s against my religion/conscious to kill something if it’s not absolutely 100% needed for my survival.

If I refuse to take part in this during SERE (if it’s even still a thing) or any other training like Live tissue (again, if Id even need to do that) would I be dropped? Is this something that I should let stop me If it is required and I know I’ll struggle with, or something I can deal with when the time comes? Are there any SOF that don’t require you to kill any animals for training purposes? Thank you. I’m sure i’ll get a lot of negative feedback. But the main reason I want to earn this job is to save/protect lives, not take them. I understand this training is meant to save/protect others and I honour anyone who’s been through it. I just personally know I’ll be spiritually wrestling with my conscious during the process if it’s still a thing and bend what I believe in. If anybody has a more in depth description of any part of selection that requires you to kill, as I really don’t have much info on it, please inform me.

I have no problem destroying my own self to become apart of SF, just when it comes to another life I know i’ll refuse, and don’t want to get that far just to get dropped for it, when I can ask about it now. I hope you can respect where i’m coming from. Thank you.
