pigs are not vermin, and cows are also smart
pigs are not vermin
wild hogs are more destructive to a farmer than wolves. yes, they are vermin. delicious, tasty vermin.
cows are also smart
cows block roads and railroads if they get out of their pens; an intelligent animal would see a car or train coming and run. their ancestors were hunted by scaring a whole herd over a cliff. cows are decidedly very stupid creatures.
i dont think theres a single instance of an intelligent herbivore, now that i think about it.
you switched your argument from " billions of commercial pigs slaughtered pointlessly for food" to "wild hogs"
nah.
Its true. Livestock has become too industrialized. We need more, smaller “inefficient” farmers that can ensure a higher quality of life, longer life, and more human death for animals, if we continue to eat animals. Perhaps there will be better plant based alternatives to meat in the future that do not have the same health repercussions as the modern vegetarian diet does today.
What would we do if we stopped raising pigs for meat? Would we keep them as pets? Let them roam free in designated areas? They are pretty nasty when they go wild.
