yea i get your point...i just dont think animal cruelty is right......imagine if for some reason packaged meat suddenly stopped being produced....lmao....like worldwide...no sausage, chops, burgers, steak.....UNLESS you hunted the cow....(which wouldnt actually be that hard come to think of it)....and skinned, gutted, beheaded it, cut the different parts of meat out.....thats how i would prefere to live if it stopped slughterhouses mistreating animals....

.....however saying that i saw a programme called tribe the other night and this dude went deeeeep into some forest and met with this tribe, and he lived with them for a little while......this tribe in one of their religious ceremonies hung a cow...like rope round a cows neck and raised off the ground (they did eat it btw)......not as harsh as cutting a bull's bals off, with what looks like scissors though. but if that was in a western country they would be stopped imediatly for causing undue stress and pain to an animal...
