Goats and cow milk have been in the human diet for a very long time. Cheese, butter, ....

That doesn’t make it any less weird that you are breast-feeding off of another species. Why not dog milk? Horse milk?

Health and kind treatment of animals and our environment are conservative principals. Eat what you want but I cringe when people rip that soybean of its mother. Disgusting and cruel.

Well, if you were concerned about health and treatment of animals, you wouldn’t support the meat and dairy industry and the factory farming that goes with it. But I take it from your comment that you really are not concerned that calves are taken from their mothers at birth and not allowed to bond and not allowed to nurse. And that this kind of treatment is par for the course.

I have my own chickens for eggs. They are very happy in the wide open area. I raise my own pork with free range pigs that get lots of garden veggies. I have my own garden, blueberry, blackberry, pear, apple, peach, trees. Forgot the figs. I am a country boy on my own land so I know my animals. My dogs, cats play with and protect my land and farm animals. I don’t need the vegan religion from city folks who think shopping on the organic isle is being socially responsible.

Glad your happy in your lifestyle but I will keep mine. No hard feeling. You do your thing and I will do mine. That’s our god given right.

Right, cause no species feeds off any other species…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5fOsgrAJiU May I present the venus fly trap.

Stop assigning human emotions to animals. The animal kingdom is FAR harder on each other than we are or could be. That calf “torn away from its mother” would watch helplessly as “mother’ ran off from the wolf or coyote, leaving its precious kindred to be a meal.

Is what is shown on the videos hard to watch? Yes.
Is what is shown on that video necessarily hard on the animals? No

I grew up in the country, on dairy and horse farms. I also know that electricity does not come from the wall socket and oil has never come from dinosaurs.
