Pregnant Cow Escapes From A Truck That Was Taking Her To The Slaughterhouse And Gives Birth To A Wonderful Calf

I think it's ethical using animals for food. But we have to give them a good and happy life and a fast and painfree death. That's the only logical thing to do... they sacrifice their lifes for us, we need to treat them with respect.

It is terrible the ways they treat pigs.

I agree. But even if we exclude ethics and only look for profit, these farmers should know it's a loss to kill a pregnant animal. I mean, new cattle - new income, no?

Well, the question is whether you will be willing to pay about USD 7 (or EUR 7) for the amount of meat of a single burger patty, and about 15 for a steak. This is a realistic price for organic, animal-friendly farming. I am afraid most people are not willing to, although hardly anyone does not condemn mistreatment of animals.

There's no such thing as humane killing. This is just a lie you tell yourself to feel less guilty. Turn things around, and think about cows killing and eating us. "Oh, this is perfectly cowmane. We just impregnate you by rape, and then immediately rob you of your child straight after you give birth, so we can force you into a life of slavery robbing you of your milk until we kill you. You will never see daylight, or be able to move much" SOUND NICE TO YOU????

I totally agree with you. Even if you are going to kill them at least have some empathy until they are alive.

You can read many articles on this. For example, this one by the FAO: http://www.fao.org/docrep/003/x6909e/x6909e04.htm You are welcome to enjoy your burger, but do not deny where it comes from.

Riiight! Because someone told her where they were going.

Riz, I agree - have you read The Secret Life of Cows by Rosamund Young? They’re really complex, family oriented animals, totally amazing.

Why does this get downvotes? I agree, we can read, look, talk - we DO have a choice. Animals don't. The easiest choice is eating at least less and better meat. No one in the first world can claim not to have that choice.

I love animals so I don't eat them or anything that comes from them. It is that simple.

Or simply be more conscious of where the meat you eat comes from and how the animal was treated. If you think 2% of a population going vegan is going to make a difference, then you're in for a surprise

Explain some that are fiber free.

If everyone thought that and acted on their thoughts, we could make it so every one of them is so lucky. Go vegan and stop funding the industry that does this to these poor cows.

I went vegetarian a year ago... it was actually easy. You get the hang of it after a month. There are plenty of other options.

Idk why you're being downvoted ): someone else said the exact same thing

All gods are imaginary.

Well, it does say "being kind to one more little animal", not necessarily that it's the calf. They probably wanted to snow a picture of the owner of the sanctuary but couldn't find or get a good one with him with the calf
