Draw My Life: Cow Edition
A cow’s natural lifespan is about 20 years, but cows used by the dairy industry are typically killed after about five years because their bodies wear out from constantly being pregnant or lactating. A dairy-industry study found that by the time they are killed, nearly 50 percent of cows are lame because of standing on concrete flooring and filth in intensive confinement. Cows’ bodies are often turned into soup, food for dogs and cats, or ground beef because they are too “spent” to be used for anything else.
The good news is that removing dairy products from your diet is easier than ever. Today, there are many vegan dairy products on the market, such as soy, rice, oat, and almond milk and soy- and coconut-based ice cream.
