{{Otheruses4|the act of ending a living being's life. For the Italian comic book character, see [[Killing (comics)]]}}

To '''kill''', '''killing''' or to have '''killed''' means to cause the [[death]] of a [[living]] [[organism]].

The act of killing an [[animal]], [[plant]], or other [[life form]] can be said to have occurred when an outside [[force]], usually another life form, has done something to cause it to [[death|die]]. This may be a result of several actions:
* a deliberate action such as [[war]]
* in the case of animals, [[slaughter]]; see [[slaughterhouse]]
* the result of a criminal act, the [[action (philosophy)|action]] or [[fault]] of another human being, see [[homicide]] and [[murder]]
* the results of an [[accident]], such as a [[car accident|car crash]]. See [[negligent homicide]]
* [[suicide]] (to kill oneself)
* a United States Marine Corps Term meaning "Acknowledged" or "Understood"

A "K by protocol" in many areas when said by PD, Fire, or EMS means a death that meets certain protocols such that resuscitative efforts do not have to be made and would clearly be futile.
