I overheard people saying they would feel better about
vegetarianism (as compared with veganism) if they knew the
cows were happy. I think this is measurable
Is your cow eating or gantin oan a shag likes?

//What is a 'milchcow'?// A milchcow (or milch cow) is a cow kept for milk. 'Milch' is middle-English for 'milk', and 'cow' is current English for 'cow'. |
|
| |
I think milch cows are probably about as happy as a cow can be, at least in countries that use pasture and don't pump the cows full of growth hormone. |
|
| |
//countries that use pasture and don't pump the cows full of growth hormone// Sadly, middle-English milch is rather hard to get nowadays, unless you acquire a taste for bog-butter. |
|
| |
On the very contrary. Most milk in middle-England comes from pasture-fed* cows and is added-hormone-free by law. |
|
| |
(*hence the term "pasturized") |
|
| |
Nothing about producing milk equates with happy. |

//Z?// Yes. Call me a traditionalist if you must. |

There are already a number of products on the market functioning as wearables, really, which can, by use of an accelerometer, tell you whether the cow is ruminating or horny. It is not entirely coincidental that studies have shown that these are the two mind states of halfbakers. Anyway, I wonder of finer readings won't allow for farmers to identify which of their beasts is operating in the perfectly balanced bovine nirvana between the two predominant states. |

Kingdomist arrogance to think that plants don't feel pain. |
