They kill wildlife - birds, deer, all kinds of cats, coyotes, beavers, groundhogs, mice and foxes by the million in order to protect their domestic animals and their feed.<br /><br /> Then they kill domestic animals by the billion and eat them. This in turn kills people by the million, because eating all those animals leads to degenerative - and fatal - health conditions like heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and cancer.<br /><br /> So then humans spend billions of dollars torturing and killing millions more animals to look for cures for these diseases.<br /><br /> Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being killed by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being used to fatten domestic animals.<br /><br /> Meanwhile, few people recognize the absurdity of humans, who kill so easily and violently, and once a year send out cards praying for &quot;Peace on Earth.&quot;<br /><br /> ~Revised Preface to Old MacDonald&#39;s Factory Farm by C.
