    I have mixed feelings on this. On the one hand that’s pretty interesting and like, hurray for saving lives. But on the other hand it seems kind of incredibly messed up to raise animals as sacrificial organ sacks.

      You’re gonna be blown away when you learn how animals treat each other in the wild.

      It’s easy to label others from a fictional high ground. If faced with death or dead pig im sure most people choose dead pig.

        I don’t care how they treat each other, we should hold ourselves to a higher standard. And I’m not labelling anyone here, I just said I had mixed feelings about it.
