2004-04-21 01:37:33 ET Some people say that we should stop eating cows. However, when you start thinking about you start to ask yourself - what would happen to all the cows once the cow factories close? Would they go off and run free in the wild? I mean, when was the last time you saw a pack of wild cows roaming through nature's pastures? No, the cows wouldn't last too long in such an environment. In fact they'd become endangered pretty quick. Which brings me to my point. Instead of labeling a species of animal as "endangered" and putting it on a list we should put it on a menu. Imagine if you could go to a KFC and order yourself a nice big bucket of bald eagle wings or go to a McDonald's and order yourself a Manatee burger. Those animals would get off the endangered list pretty damn quick. Why? Because you'd have cattle yards for endangered species. They'd be bred, fattened, hormonated, processed, and cooked all at an amazing rate. In fact there'd be too much of them. More people would eat bald eagle meat then chicken meat and soon the chicken will go the way of the Dodo. Extinct. And cows too. And buffalo. |
