I feel the same way, E.V. To enslave any animal for food and especialy a mamal when there is no need is abominable. The eskimos of the far north may have a reasonable excuse for hunting animals since they can't grow food where they are. But it's no struggle against nature here in the lower 48. Bovines are gentle, innofensive creatures. Too bad we can't say the same for all breeds of humans. As the inspired say: It's your choices in life, not your talents, that make you who and what and how you are.
