Cattle feeding

named as ruthless predators, but they are merely feeding the pack and keeping their place in the food chain. When a member of a wolf pack dies, the others will howl and mourn. We say that they are noisy, and that their sounds of sadness are annoying. Yet we pay them no sympathy, for when someone we love dies, we do the same, crying into the night. Wolves are hunted for killing and eating cattle. After saying those things, we kill and eat the cattle for…

using them for every necessity such as clothing, drums, and weapons.

Consumers Educated on Food Quality Consumers should be educated about food quality and its effect on the environment and our health. All types of industrial farming is horrible for people to be around or consume. To begin with, local sustainable farming it provides people a healthy choice of organic food. Additionally, a consumer cares about the food quality of the food whether it be from industrial farming or local sustainable farming. Industrial farming has many dangerous farming…

I did. My two older brothers are now in college and the heifers that they purchased through the calf scramble program have helped them to establish a nice source of income while they are in college, plus I get to reap the benefits of the quality cattle that they purchased because those mommas are raising some show quality babies that I am getting the opportunity to show. Leading up to my scramble night in Houston my brothers offered advice on securing my catch, thankfully track practice had…

source of food, free range/ grass fed cattle causes more environmental harm than good. Free grazing of cows tends to cause over-grazing, which is the process of constant eating of a specific land field in which a location is exposed to long periods of feeding without the time to recuperate.…

Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations or also known as CAFO’s are another cause for the contamination of water. CAFO’s are giant livestock farms where thousands of chicken and cows are housed into small confinements and live in horrible conditions. When so many animals are stored in a limited space manure will become a problem for the farm, according to the Union of Concerned Scientists, “CAFOs produce some 300 million tons of untreated manure each year (about twice as much as is generated by…

Knoblock is just one of many farmers seeing a huge difference in switching from feeding their livestock from GM filled food to natural grown Non-GM food. Steve Tusa, a farmer who raises cattle in Minnesota, has witnessed many improvements after making the switch. Tusa had many deaths in the past of his cattle because of digestive problems caused by their old GM filled diet, but since the switch, the percent of deaths have decreased fifty percent. Tusa now grows approximately 1400 Non-GM crops…

Many activists for animal rights have argued that the animals that we are killing for food have emotions, and therefore, have a right to life. However, one experiment has shown that “over the past few decades, tool use, once considered a skill exhibited by humans alone, has been seen in many species [such as the octopus]…” (Clemmitt). While these animals have been found to have an innovative intelligence, no experiment has been conducted to allow the world of science to truly understand the…

even certain types of birds make up the majority of the list. Oxpeckers are one type of bird known for eating ticks. There has been indications they also cause damage to the host of the tick they are eating. Guinea hens, chickens and other ground feeding birds are also known to feast on ticks. Mammals groom and birds preen ticks and various other parasites off both themselves and others. Several people believe that these tick eating birds will reduce the risk of ticks because of their habit.…

The price of eggs sold didn’t pay of the panting straws needed in hen’s house. Pigs that weighed 200 lb were sold for $3 each. The worst scenario was when farmers had to kill their pigs rather than finish feeding them because feeding them costed more than they made from a pig. Farmers lived a very poor life within the years 1928 to 1937. The last factor is the plague of grasshoppers. In 1931, the hopper infestation occurred. The hopper would come not by one but in hundreds…
