    Oh sure, very possibly or even likely. But what’s the alternative? As far as I can see, it’s either these animals being butchered for profit or basically going extinct. All bad options

    Edit: I went back to read the title from the image. The “vegan” label on there is very pointed. Seems derogatory.

      The alternative is not breeding living beings just to imprison and exploit them. Going extinct isn’t “bad”, especially when the alternative is what we currently inflict on them. That said, you can always support sanctuaries. You know those places taking in animals that specifically don’t have a literal “meat-program”?

      @Lodra @kttnpunk Another other alternative is that when the fharmed species of these animals - which have been specifically and unnaturally engineered by us over many generations solely to fulfil our desires from their bodies - are no longer forcibly bred, this would free up vast areas of land on which their wild brethren would be able to flourish, unmolested, again.
      To claim breeding animals solely to kill them is the only way to stop them going extinct is disingenuous at best.
