Promoting 'Humane' treatment of 2D animals

[Ruth]

I think both of the options presented are very sad.

I have seen first hand the plight of abandoned horses in Oklahoma. We found a dead horse on our land when we visited in December. Two horses had been abandoned there and didn't have enough water to thrive. So it died a very slow, painful death. We called the authorities to have the one still living removed, and I feel sure it was probably taken to a slaughter house, but that was my only option at the time since we no longer live on the land. So which option was worse for the animal?

Many of these animals wouldn't exist at all if they weren't being raised specifically for consumption.

So I would say that the current trend toward educating consumers about the benefits of a healthy diet are, ultimately, the way to make this change happen in our world.
