Do unto animals...

Why force herbivores into cannibalism? Shouldn't only bad things (like "Mad Cow" disease) happen when you take a group of grass-eating vegetarians and force them to eat meat?

If anything makes me glad that I swore off red meat in the fall of 2003, it is contemplating meat-fed calves and cattle. Sheesh.

I hope we humans can learn to persist without fois-gras, produced by force-feeding geese using a tube inserted into the esophagus.

And veal! Most veal calves are forced to live for all their days in tiny crates that restrict them from even stretching their legs to rest. They are fed a diet intentionally lacking in iron to keep their meat a "desirable" pink colour.

Shame on us humans.

My dog, Pretzel, is as aware and acute as a young human. He sighs, he gets happy, he cries when he's lost his toy. He burps, he farts, he sneezes. He needs affection and lots of play time. He is like a little child.

It's too bad that said geese and cattle, who surely deserve to live some semblance of a normal life, should be treated in a deplorable manner while selected domestic animals enjoy an elevated status in terrestrial society.

After visiting a veal-related Web page, http://www.britishmeat.com/veal.html, I feel every bit as bad as I would reading about any child being severely battered and abused.
