One Response to Dairy Cows and Cow Facts
And what happens to the “unproductive” male calves? What happens to the
“spent” mothers? Adult humans do not need cow’s milk any more than they
need goat’s milk, wolf’s milk, camel’s milk, giraffe’s milk. Unweaned
infants do remarkably better on their own mother’s breast milk which is
what our species was intended to consume. There’s absolutely nothing
beneficial to the human diet in cow’s milk that can’t be gotten through
plant based sources.
