1. What is the life expectancy and general quality of life of a wild animal compared to a farm animal
That's assuming it doesn't get exterminated on grounds of sheer inconvenience.
Quote:2. What's the solution ?There isn't one, at least not for that. That is, after all, the "natural state" we're supposed to be transgressing against with our heinous breeding and feeding and caring and sheltering and slaughtering and eating of animals. Why this isn't recognized as a "natural state" and mutually beneficial to both involved species completely escapes me. Even more strangely....suppose that some animal actually "prefers" the state of things on a farm, or satisfies these conditions of it expressing what it is to be x and having a generally pleasant life? We prefer our cities to caves..after all. Then what?
