Answer 2

You can not explain what it is like until you have seen a calf grow to become a full grown beef cow

.. .. ..

And put on a truck to be taken to a place where they are killed to become a sandwich

.. .. ..

That mankind eats not know what kind of life that animal had to live to become that meal for them they hold in their hands

.. .. .

And where does that  cow then end up in the flushed down the toilet the next day after we finish digesting it

.. .. .

Wouldn't that be a fantastic life to have to live if we WE were that cow

.. .. ..

Knowing that is the only reason we were alive is to become a toilet bowl of c**p one day

.. .. ..

Answer 3

That would be called "life".

Answer 4

Try 'the Jungle' by Upton Sinclair.  It talks about working in the slaughter houses in Chicago at the turn of the century.  It pretty much describes the entire process of cows journies through the slaughter house.  Although it doesn't cover lives of cattle on the free range.

Answer 5

You should definately read John Robbins book Diet for a New America.  Talks all about what animals lives are like before they are slaughtered.
