    confine against their will

    they don’t know what’s good for them. protecting them from the elements and predators and starvation is good.

      Not breeding them into existence just to kill them at a fraction of their natural lifespan is much better.

          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.
