Think happy cows come from California?
New video from Farm Sanctuary: Behind the Mustache
Farm Sanctuary's investigation of Californian dairy farms.
This summer, when you're eating your ice cream or drinking milk, remembers who truly suffers to provide their bodily fluid for your treats. The suffering of a mother, whose nourishment for her offspring is diverted for human consumption. And, as further insult, the offspring she has carried in her body, is then ripped from her hours to a few days after their birth. Then, the young calf is doomed to veal, clothing, and/or low-grade meat.
The callousness with which the workers in this video treat the cows and their calves is nothing short of reprehensible. All life is precious and to throw it away so easily is disappointing, indeed.
It never ceases to amaze me to see the suffering of non-human animals just so we (as a species) can consume them and their by-products. Milk is especially foul. And the lacto vegetarians who think they're being kind to animals becuase they only consume milk are sorely delusional. Milk isn't cruelty-free. It is, in fact, hand-in-hand with veal and hamburgers. So, the only way to end the cruelty is to simply Go Vegan!
There are countless of non-dairy alternatives, even frozen. To continue the consumption of a cow's milk, in this day of choices, is inexcusable. Cow's milk is for their babies-not humans!
