    the lifespan of livestock is exactly how long they are kept alive.

      Yes, thank you for making my point! When compared to the same animals living out their natural lives in a sanctuary, they’re only kept alive for a miniscule fraction of the time:

      And looking at the conditions a vast majority of these animals are raised in, it’s hard to argue we’re doing them any favors.

        no dairy cow would survive 20 years without shelter from the elements, protection from predators, veterinary care, ample food, and clean water. That’s not a natural lifespan. That’s an artificial lifespan.

          Anyhow, livestock is being killed well before they reach maturity. All for human pleasure.

            pretty sure most livestock are slaughtered for money.
