But then Animals won't ever be born and get to the live in the first place, people focus on the dying and being eaten part, but forget if not for that they'd never get to live,

Is it better to live and die young and be eaten or never be born in the first place ??

* obviously, Living requires a certain standard of life, not battery farmed!

Hey, at least it will prevent BSE. Anyone here have any idea how insidious that is? Caused by a "prion"? Incurable and 100% fatal? What a hideous evil thing it is!

Here is the rub:

To make that meat taste like the real thing (or at least as humans perceive it), they have to put the necessary fats and sodium to give you that proper "hit". Try throwing it to a wolf or a lion.

Still a novel idea from a conservation/feed the world standpoint. I'll eat it.

We have enough food to feed the world three times over every day of their life. Conserve what?

Out here we take care of our land and nobody but the EPA can stop us. Get out of the city for a decade or two and you will see there is a big beautiful world out there full of animals and people who care for them.

How exactly does EPA stops you and others from taking care of your land?

Conserve land and the nature that goes with it. Large swaths of forests were cut off - and continue to be cut off - to free land to feed cattle. Remove the need to feed cattle, you conserve the land and the ecosystems that come with it.
