Because il is for masculine nouns and la is for feminine nouns. They both mean the in English. Carne is a feminine noun so it should be la carne and not il carne.

Well, I can't agree more. But I cannot say Duolingo isn't for learning languages. It's not for philosophy or ethics, right?
They don't eat meat" why is that wrong? It's the same as "they do not eat meat"
I mean, come on. They didn't accept it because I wrote "don't" instead of "do not". You need to fix this.
How come in a previous sentence we have to use "la carne" for "meat" and not "the meat" and here i tried to do that, but got it wrong.
I think it is ok not to accept it. "Loro non mangiano carne" without article ("la" carne) is a general statement, and general statements want the present simple in English, as far as I know.
Well, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian have a lot in common, aside from the obvious relation they have for being romance languages.
it does, some of the words are the same,i learned spanish, and now italian is so much easier to learn
the first thing we learned is that we have to write la, lo, un, una etc. now i wrote "il carne" and it's not accepted
