Not AFAIK, and IIRC (at least as of this conversation, which was probably around 2010) he doesn't think cows are sapient either.

Has he met one? (I have and I still eat them, this isn't a loaded question; I would just be curious to know whether and what effect that would have on his personal ethic specifically.)
