Derek Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I was thinking about cows flicking their tails to keep flies away. You know they're constantly getting bit or stung by all sorts of insects. Same with any other warm-blooded animal that lives outside. Constant attacks from fleas, mosquitos, flies, ants, wasps, etc. and with really no way to prevent it. I can't imagine that. It makes me sad. Then I start thinking that maybe us carnivores are helping by ending their suffering? And, ironically, the vegetarians may be prolonging it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hypothesis doesn't hold up very well, though, knowing animals are bred and raised just for us to eat. 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 No, they're not because evolution has made their hides relatively resistant against things that our far thinner skin can't tolerate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my guy. Thank you. (Except for those worm things that get inside the skin and lay eggs or whatever they do) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
