I mean, if an elephant dies what do they do with the body?

    you don’t have to be vegan to help stop animal cruelty. there are many, many humane and legit ways to help animals without veganism. not drinking milk or eating eggs doesn’t matter.

              The vast majority of that is through factory farming. It’s a cheap cop out from personal responsibility saying you only “buy local animal products.” You probably eat at restaurants or at friends’ houses without checking the source of those.

              The only way you can have cows milk is by impregnating cows. Google how this is done, there is tutorial videos on YouTube. It is horrible.

              The only way people have egg laying hens is by killing the male chicks. This happens even with backyard chickens.

              Be real man.

                artificial insemination is a veterinary procedure. I don’t care to watch videos of live births or spaying and neutering, but that doesn’t make them bad.

                    there is no higher benefit to any living things than to pass it’s generic material to a new generation. sterilization is not in their interest, but AI is.
