Please watch and share this guys. Hopefully it will change some minds. This was the worst thing I've ever seen in person and something I never expected to witness. No product is worth this abuse.
My wonder is how they allowed you such access. It almost makes me think they want to show you how *good* their practices are! If so, the disconnect is unfathomable. How were you allowed to do this? And thank you for bearing witness to these things to get the word out. I know I couldn't do it, myself. We all have a different calling around the cause. I'm still trying to find mine.
I was following a vegetarian diet for 1 year. In the beginning, I thought being vegan is too much and unnecessary. Then after learning the process behind dairy products I am finally able to convince myself to become vegan. Thanks for sharing the right information and knowledge.
I mean, this is not all farms, some farmers treat there amimals properly until there ready to be harvested. Farmers like that treat animals like this need to be arrested.
@@heh650 But the problem is ALL dairy farms steal the children from the mothers and all the cows on all the dairy farms will still end up in the slaughterhouse. Unfortunately there is no humane way for the dairy industry to exist. This cruelty only happens because we are purchasing their products. Cheers 🍻
@@heh650in the end, the result is the same. One may even argue that it's potentially worse taking away a life they enjoyed, and would rather continue enjoying.
What I find horrifying is that this is one of the *nicer* dairy farms I've seen footage of. Like. As awful as this is, I've seen so much worse. The whole industry deserves to be abolished.
Good luck abolishing cheese icecream butter .........etc from the markets It won't happen as you will face economic crisis no government wants to face and jobless crisis and angry mobs of cheese lovers who don't give a $hit about cows LOL
Just knowing that Ed caressing that baby it is the only kindness that the animal will receive for their whole, short life, is heartbreaking. As a mother of three, my heart breaks for all moms who are separated from their babies, humans and animal.
Because they do get loved. Farmers are numb to it as the death of cows in herd is natural. Old cows are very expensive to take care of. They aren’t just used for meat. They are used in many other applications. For example, the hooves get keratin extracted and that’s used in many shampoos. They produce insulin too
recently went vegan and ive had some trouble shopping since i never realized how many products have milk, whey, butter etc in them. ive thought about giving up but these videos really remind me of how disgusting the industry is and how i cant continue to support it i just wish i had more of an impact. even going vegan, theses injustices and this abuse will continue to happen, regardless of what i do
Yes we have a long way to go thats true. But every vegan more on the planet has ripple effects. I became vegan because I met a vegan. We should not convince people but just be an example and inspire. I live in Berlin and more and more and more people go vagan here. And it has ripple effects. We cast a vote by what we think, do and buy
@não sei exactly, If you think about the amount of animals that have their life taken per person each year its a pretty big deal so you can imagine the 100s of chicken and 10s of cows someone could save in 10 years of veganism
@@Vanillababe7 Yep, a vegetarian that I became friends with in college opened the door to me eventually becoming vegan. My partner and a friend of mine have both moved towards vegetarianism because of me. We CAN make a difference. Stay strong and keep fighting.
I’m a mom. I couldn’t stop the tears when I saw that mama lose her baby, and the newborn being manhandled like an Amazon package instead of a living, breathing, feeling being. I hate that it took me so long to be vegan.
@Paul Semmens It’s known that cows grieve for their kids. You’ll see them running after the people taking the kids from them. It’s also been reported that they call out to the kid when they’re not around.
I try and share these types of videos with my family and they always say "I don't want to see that it's too upsetting"....don't you see a problem then?...
Jlizzy yes the hypocrisy is real. My friends and family do the same thing. They refuse to watch these videos then when I ask them why they support it they literally say “I just like meat too much” or “I just don’t care”
Your response should be " imagine how they feel they have to live it" people need to have empathy. As long as they consume they are paying for this to be done. People hate feeling that guilt but that is the truth
My mother does that. If I tell her of some kind of animal abuse, she tries to guilt-trip me for the rest of the day with “Oh, I wish you hadn’t told me. You’ve really upset me”. It’s not me that upset you, though, it’s what’s being done to these animals.
When I saw a Child beeing dragged from the Mother I got a tear in my eye(and I don't cry often!). I have been a vegetarian for a few months and from a few days I am 100% vegan. This video showed me that this decision is right. Thank you, whoever you are.
Being vegan is like knowing the Holocaust is going on, but no one believes you or even makes fun of you for trying to spread the message to make it stop.
I agree with the general sentiment and the reprehensible and unjustifiable harm being done to animals, yet I think drawing these comparisons is wrong and does more harm than good. It can be very triggering and unsympathetic for the people who had to live through this or lost their family in the Holocaust. This is more of a provocation to see the brutality, I understand that, but even when cutting out the part of human decency towards others in using one group of people that has been decimated against other beings which are being brutally killed and the fact that this hurts individuals affected, this is also factually wrong. The Holocaust had the objective to literally obliterate an entire ethnic/religious people, exterminate every last one until no one was left because of unreasonable hate and the conceived 'superiority' complex of N*zis which made them desire a disgusting ideal of only having their own ethnic group remain. The reasons to slaughter and exploit all those animals is completely different; people want to use them for food - which does not make this in any way, shape, or form justifiable but it just shows that this completely counteracts an eradication of a species. Quite in the contrary, we artificially breed thousands over thousands of these poor individuals into existence every day just to sustain their population. Those animals are also seen as inferior and are brutally killed and this is a great injustice of the contemporary world, yes, but why do we need to use, almost prey upon, one suffering in order to raise awareness for another, completely different and not really comparable one? Let's rather try constructive but blatant spreading of information and awareness of these atrocities instead of utilizing the pain of other marginalized communities.
@@littlepetkingdome7492 Waow perfect example of how vegans are insane. They care more about some fucking cows then their own race. We are animals, maybe we dont 100% need meat but we are the supreme race so deal with it.

Godamn you're right, imagine aliens just find us and then start treating us trapped like this and killing us by the billions, that's probabaly how it is for these cows...
Just imagine you would be a slave. This is how they would used to treat slaves. They would even force strong male humans to rape the women, so they could "increase their stock". I am not joking; these slavery facts are often very much hidden as well.
@@balkanblackpillvideosandmo8456 Imagine if the plants in the other alien world had plants (autotrophs) with "developed nervous system" and could "feel and walk"? That planet is starving. :(
After seeing this video and some videos of cows and pigs bonding, playing, and loving, I have immediately become a vegan. Before I used to say, what is the point? I can't save them all...I can't stop this completely...but just because you can't save all animals from this fate by yourself, doesn't mean you don't have a profound effect on some. Each animal is individual, and we, as humans wouldn't give up trying to help if our own young were suffering. The few individuals you do save from this life are profoundly and deeply affected. Each living creature that is alive and well because of your actions would tell you it was worth it. Each mother who didn't have to lose her baby would thank you from the bottom of her soul. You are making a difference one living being at a time- and that matters.
Thank you for going vegan! You are so right. Even if we can't save them all, we can save some, and we don't have to contribute to more suffering by being morally complicit. Thank you for making the change and sharing your perspective.

U do that because when the cow has a calf u seperate it then that way if u end up with a cow with mastitis the calf wouldn't spread the disease mastitis can kill the cow in 24 hrs
Cows have the power to kill us in seconds. Even after what all we do to them, they show no violence. I have never seen any other animals than cows/buffaloes with so much kindness and patience and hope that one day humans will see the truth and do the right. Edit: Maybe I am wrong, and all cows aren't so kind, but being the most intelligent species on Earth, we certainly should be kind.
Maathew Lyne so taking away their babies so we can drink their milk is ok then? Keeping them like slaves and once they are all used up slaughtering them and eating them smh. You are the only one that sounds like a so called 'twat'

@@kyu4662 How do you know that she forgets? She maybe doesn't cry out for it, but if cows can recognize humans and remember them, I think they probably remember what happened. Do you think a dog or cat would remember?

This is just so devastating, I can't help being teary-eyed :( What can the poor mum cow do? It doesn't have fangs or claws to defend herself or her baby cow.. there she remains in silence after her baby is taken away from her.. and humans without any animal sensitivity will be thinking that everything is fine for the cow.. but it isn't, it so very isn't.. How can this be allowed? How can in our modern day governments allow this? I cannot explain myself.. And yet when I think how common human slavery was just a couple of centuries ago.. animal rights is the next frontier.. and right aound time it was.
@@christophernupp4591 Interesting observation you have made Christopher. I don't know how that works out for mama dog. I do acknowledge that a puppy that is raised lovingly and caringly (by humans) can experience a lot of happiness and satisfaction in its life and that certainly is good 👍 And the same is true for rescued calves that go and live in animal sanctuaries The problem is that it seems too many calves (espescially male calves) are sent to slaughter because they are too costly to keep around.. all this in the name of milk production (for human consumption). That's the difference between calves and puppies, you see.. at least puppies get to live
@@christophernupp4591 But dogs aren't abused for their milk. And factory farming abuse IS the norm. Why must some people have to bring up the bible? Some pick and choose what they claim to follow. There's no excuse for this or any abuse, plain and simple.
@@christophernupp4591 Your Bible has no place in a conversation about morality. The Bible condones slavery, rape, and the subjugation of women and LGBT people. Your religion does not dictate moral truth, and it does not absolve you of moral responsibility to stop murdering and torturing sentient animals. Also, vegans agree that breeding puppies is immoral, so your point is moot and a textbook case of whataboutism. You're trying to morally implicate the vegan so they stop criticizing the dairy industry, but it doesn't matter what happens to dogs. We're talking about how immoral it is to consume dairy. Stay on topic. It is not okay to exploit a female cow's reproductive system, take her baby, and steal her milk so humans can consume it. Her milk does not belong to us, and the process required to produce it causes tremendous suffering.
I never thought this would happen to me but one of Ed's videos turned me into a vegan over night. I had to buy milk for a family member and as I stood in the super market before the shelves with milk I started to cry. I took the carton with no happy face of cow on it and paid for it. I told my family member that I can longer be part of this cruelty in any way, shape or form. Luckily my choice is being respected. Not sure how many more tears I will shed as this is all sinking in on all levels.
I don't drink milk but I love and need meat bc it help me with running and fitness I need to be tough and strong need lean meat so I don't get injured and it improved my skin bone muscle speed endurance and I still carb up
I did work experience before I was vegan when I wanted to be a vet on a dairy farm. the milking parlour looked exactly the same, although the one in the video looked much cleaner (cows hadn't pooed all over the place and the milking machines yet). there were isolation areas for calves. the hardest thing I saw was one of the cows teet's had been damaged by kicking and the end was sort of hanging off- so all the milk from that one teet would be bloodied. the farmer said it would cost about £150 to fix it. so the cow was sent to the slaughterhouse the same day. this was a uk 'nice' farm as we are marketed, and I really see no difference between it and the one in this video, the cows were still yelled at with hit with rubber tubing if they did not voluntarily go where they were told cows are still slaughtered and exploited in the dairy industry.
Sir/maam you must understand that this happens to 1 out of 900 cows and injuries are something that will happen no matter what, the life expectancy and survival rate if offspring is much greater on farms than in nature and the cows dont starve in the winter like in nature. Cows walk into the milking shed willingly
@@lordoftherims436 cows do not 'willingly' walk into the milking shed to have their milk, made for their offspring stolen for human consumption. They are herded in because they are afraid and herd animals, when they don't comply they are hit (how brutally is dependent on the farm), the farm I was on used a robotic metal gate to force the cows into a smaller and smaller space so they had to enter the milking lines. Some cows yes were more compliant because they had been conditioned after so long to just comply and avoid conflict, but the cows who had only first calved recently would kick at the milking machines and be visibly uncomfortable. I do understand injuries are less frequent as a reason for slaughter (although after researching, your 1 in 900 seems misguided and I would encourage you to find evidence to support this before using it as an argument) , but regardless every cow should she become unable to carry any more babies will be slaughtered. All of the cows who go in the milking shed were artificially inseminated in the first place, and there is nothing willful about being held in a metal cage that prevents movement, and having a farmer forcibly impregnate you. Cows lived naturally in the wild as part of our ecosystem, the ones we see in farms are selectively bred to be as beneficial to us as possible. They are bred into a life of subservience and suffering, I think it would be more moral to stop breeding cattle for our consumption/benefit, and to let that farmland repopulate with wild animals. There are also sanctuaries like Edgar's mission that rescue farm animals and give them happy, safe and comfortable lives to live out the life span they were supposed to have.
@@alastairatcheson1407 Haha I would love to see that. I just searched to see if there was any videos and I found some of cows skipping excitedly going out into grass for the first time (after I'm guessing a long winter). It was like they were very happy to have a bit more freedom than they had grown used to. Imagine how excited they'd be to go to a sanctuary where they could roam free and live out long non-subservient lives :) Regardless of how happy your cows may appear to be milked (again, would love to see it with my own eyes)I can't support the dairy industry because of how those same cows who feel emotions just as we do- will feel when they go to the slaughterhouse.
Alastair Atcheson provably because it’s the only way for them to have their swollen udders drained, it feels good for them which is why they go willingly. Doesn’t make it okay though
I used to honestly believe that vegetarian was enough and that milk and eggs were no big deal. I was so wrong I can’t believe I contributed to this at any point in my life. It hurts to know I’ve done this. I wish I was raised vegan but sadly I wasn’t. All I can do is continue forward
I grew up the daughter of a dairy farmer. I watched my family beat cows, forced cows to lie in their manure (they couldn’t go out to pasture), and their horns being burnt off while the cows yelled in torment. We also always had lot of steak because so many dairy cows were killed when they couldn’t produce milk anymore. I now am vegan.
Do Cc yo man-made infrastructures used to murder living creatures purely for MONEY is not the circle of life😃 the circle of life represents the infinite nature of energy, meaning if something dies it gives new life to another. Taking the breast milk from a cow made for its baby does not give life to us humans.... the milk industry is for money... not life.

bobby bobson Exactly! Vegans are the same people who are pro-abortion. They will protest food but get angry when we protest the brutal murder of HUMAN baby in the womb
would you take a newborn human baby by its neck and throw it into a metal cage, kick the crying mother and steal her milk the day or day after giving birth? no, so why would you pay others to do it? this is what we need to ask people that contribute to this abusive and horrific industry.
"It makes absolutely no sense for us to be drinking milk from the udders of another animal" - too right! But bizarrely as I become vegan it will be me who will be treated as the freak for not doing so! If this wasn't a tradition and someone went to drink milk from a different species they would be arrested or sectioned!
Veganism is slowly becoming the new norm. I just read a new report that 41% of American households now purchase plant-based milk. That's crazy to think about! My only regret about becoming vegan was that I didn't do it sooner. At least we'll be on the right side of history when the world comes to its senses and realizes what a bizarre and harmful tradition it really is.
@@JesusChrist-bq6lu terrorists and criminals do the killings of people. Can u respect their choice...

Try to kill and eat your neighbor's kid someday and give the reason as this is your choice for survival and see what results will u get?
@@JesusChrist-bq6lu first of all the meat u are eating is not made naturally we are forcing the pig/cow/chicken to breed which is against the nature, with some hormones injection as well to increase productivity. 2nd, livestock farming is using most land on Earth 5x more than plant farming. Thereby creating more deforestation which cuts off oxygen supply... u choose now u need oxygen or not??? Cow gut's got methanogens (bacteria) which produce methane (green house gas stored lot of heat than CO2) as waste.

Lentiles, chickpeas, beans etc... 100 gm (20-28gm of protein +dietry fibres+no cholesterol & fat). This is misconception that plant based food do not provide balance diet.

@@abcdidgh879 It does happen. In a third world country like ours, what makes you think that farms and dairies will adhere to rules and regulations ? Given our "chalta hain" attitude, I shudder to imagine how gross the animals are being treated in our farms.
Hi, ex dairy farmer here. 1. By taking away the calves it means we can put them in a pen with others so we can needle them for diseases and things they won't be immune to if they were to stay out with the mother. Mother's milk is vital yes, but like humans, that milk isn't going to protect you from anything. 2. Taking them out of the while and putting them in a shed as some do, protects them from foxes who can target calves and mothers giving birth. Now if you have ever seen what a fox can do to a calf and a full sized cow while in a vulnerable position, you'll never trust them again. That's why foxes are hunted. We have had calves in the night who have lost tongues and tails. We have bad a mother who had a teat ripped off while giving birth. Now tell me dairy farmers don't care. 3. If a calf isn't needed for adding to the herd, it can stay with the mother if it doesn't get sold. However, if you don't take the calf away from the mother, that calf can continuously suck on the mother's teats even after they have dried up. You have no idea how frustrating this is for a mother cow, no idea. It's consistent harassment 70 percent of the day. 4. As with anything, things are generalised. You will find that because one person has shown a poorly maintained farm or doesn't treat his stock right it means that every farmer is like this. You need to realise this is a business, you don't make money off sick stock. It takes thousands of dollars to feed them. This includes grain to feed them, seed to plant, fertiliser to grow the grass, fuel to keep machinery going, maintenance on that machinery, thousands on water to irrigate paddocks so the germination reaches maximum potential and to hose down dairies after cows have shat everywhere, money for medical equipment so calves can grow up free from insects and potential internal problems. We need to make sure we have guns to protect our stock from foxes (whom people love oh so much) and that odd dog that wants a thrill kill. Dairy farmers farm for the milk yes but they wouldn't do it if they didn't love working with animals. There's nothing more distressing finding out the cows have broken through your new fence and are out on the road where they can be hit by drivers who may or not be paying attention to the road. Some farmers play classical music for their cows to help calm them down, some put out big brushes in their paddocks because cows love to scratch soooo much. Calves grow up and some a put back in the herd so mother and calf are together again. Have you ever seen a cow reject her calf just as it was born? Now THAT is heartbreaking.
@@gerardistephens5142 exactly, if calves are lwft unchecked with the cows, they can damage cow's udder and make it bleed. No farmer wants to see his cows pain. This is a massive 'propaganda' (yes it is) of PETA.
@@abcdidgh879 we had a calf who lost his tail soon after he was born. Did we call him Stumpy? No we called him Lucky because he was lucky the fox didn't take more. Which is more than I can say for the mother who lost a freakin tongue while giving birth. If you want extra security throw an alpaca or two in with the mothers due to give birth.
Joe Dirte okay but when most of the world goes vegan they will have to stop killing animals because they won’t have enough money so every time someone goes vegan/vegetarian it’s a step closer to not eating meat

That’s not true. I’m a Dairy Farmer for Dairy Farmers of Canada, this video is in the states. In Canada the cows are left with their babies for about 4 months then they get a whole field of grass and when they wanna be milked they come in to the robots and they get milked (they get a treat when they get milked)

MagischePflanzen sure what ever you think every big animal I’ve killed is for food it’s not that I don’t respect them or thank them every cow or deer I’ve shot I thank them and then I eat them
Like the exploitation of people through enslavement, I hope one day the exploitation of animals will become a thing of the past. These old traditions are barberic, but with people like you and more people joining the move to a plant based diet, the tide is slowly turning
Angel Leon yes eating meat for some animals is a part of the natural cycle of life, but show me another species that raises billions of animals in captivity and the expense of the planet, pumps them full of hormones and antibiotics so you can have a fully grown, fat chicken in less than 6 months.. that’s not natural
@Xavier Rodriguez Hence why we should use that advancement to find more efficient, healthy, sustainable and morally progressive ways to get our nutrition. You are right, no modern western life is in any way natural. We find ways to cut out unneccecary labour and exploitation. That is exactly what a plant based diet does. It reduces cost, cuts out middle men, saves land, water and tons of other rescourses and provides a diet with all nutrients we need. It's only a question of time until foods that are perfectly designed for humans can be produced, but market power, human lust and "tradition" is holding that progression back. It's all market driven. As long as major companies can earn money on people not giving up habits, this advancement will take a long time. If humanity really was interested in the future of their own children and the welfare of life in general on earth - we would do away with the animal exploitation in no time. Sadly, but not surprisingly, the world is run by people who want money and power.
We can't change what others do, we can only change what we do, then hopefully others will change. Don't eat things that have a family, friends, and feelings

@Max Smith this is an issue that effects everyone in the world because animal agriculture is the largest contributor of pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Also, most of the plants grown in the world are used to feed farmed animals, and all of those plants could be used to literally solve world hunger. There are so many more reasons to care about this issue, it's not just caring about cows. So just because it's not what you would like to fight against doesn't mean that it makes someone who cares about it a low person. Everyone has their passion and their calling in the world, don't put people down for fighting in something they believe in just because it's different from what you believe.

That dairy farm was actually quite clean and they treated the cows better than at the farm I had to visit with our school... It was the worst and the most awakening experience of my life. I still remember when we visited the little calves and they were sucking on our fingers... 💔😢
Ken Kaneki all the cows come from dairy industry. They have abundance of cows and there is only one way to get rid of them when they have served their purpose
To be clear, the calves are seperated from there moms because it does happen quite often that if you left the calf with their mom that the mom eventually will stand on their baby en kill or injure him/her. So it is for their own safety. Like vacination or operations; they don't look nice, but are in the longrun better for everyone
The way that man torments the animals is unimaginable. No mother should ever be away from her child no matter the species. Anyone that would do this to an animal has allowed Satan into their lives.
@@arunshankars8398 if you mean milk substitutes i personally like oat milk the most, there are also other products you can use, soy, almond, rice ofc., i just personally prefer oat because it doesn't feel as bland as the others but it's just personal preference, you can try a lot of the available alternatives and decide for yourself which one you like the most ❤
I have been vegan for over 10 years. And these videos STILL hit home with me. Quite disheartening to know that this is only one farm out of countless throughout the world. The same is going on with pigs. Chickens. Turkeys. Ducks. Dogs. Etc. Etc. Not to mention animal testing factories. This is maddening.
My heart broke and I couldn't stop crying when the mother and baby calf were separated. The living conditions, the tiny little fenced cages they were left in. Everything about this video disgusted me. I always knew about what happened to dairy cows but seeing it in this video really opened up my eyes- and heart. I'm going to be vegan from now on, thank you so much for everything that you do. U are making a difference by showing the world and bringing awareness to this cruel industry
Daniel Griffiths why beacause he's trying to spread peace and awearness. Hate on us all u want but just know it took decades for the world to except other colors of race so this exceptense of animal rights will take time and you can hate all you want we just want peace.
I cried my eyes out. This is why I went vegan....I can't find one reason on this earth to justify putting caring, loving, feeling beings through any of this for a product that was never intended for us in the first place. 😢
Never too young for a good grill! @Divex, you hit the nail on the head. But we have gotten a bit "cultured". We no longer bite into the fresh kill, fur and all, without preparation first. lol
Don't you just love how many of the people in the comments express there love for meat when probably 90% wouldn't have the guts to kill, skin, de-gut an animal themselves😂
Dd Yes but there will be so many people leaving comments about how “they want a steak” or something like that when if they were put in that situation, they wouldn’t do it.
Dd It’s not really anything against you eating meat it is just the irresponsible people in this comment section. And we are saying that if one of those people joking about the pain they go through, do it themselves, they wont be saying the same.
To me this looks like a relative 'good' farm compared to others I've seen. I'm concerned that it might not look terrible enough to shock people & to go vegan 💔 for the record, I'm vegan, and even if these cows would roam freely with their babies by their side, I wouldn't drink their milk or whatever.
theres a farm near where i live and its nowhere near these conditions, none of the cows are kept in individual cages, they are completely free range and every time i drive by them they look beautiful. so yeah this is a poor living condition
@@morgan-jd5ws they still get forcibly insemnated, taken away from their babies, get sent to slaughter when they cant produce good enough milk and not to mention free range is even worse for the environment
To be fair, i was living on a farm for the majority of my life, and the ones shown in the Video are "good" living conditions. The animals my family held were seperated in single cages where they couldnt move, we got told to punch their udders if they would be too loud mourning their babies and so on. Its shocking to see so many people requesting their milk products..
If you died when you saw it you must of wrote the msg before you saw the video, which is funny bc how would you have known there would be a "baby cow" with a heart shaped mark on its forehead? Useless person. By the way it's called a calf
sssss not really, if we dont need meat, there is no reason for us to kill animals, for example cow milk, we shouldnt even drink it, bc is not meant for us lmfao, imagine a cow drinking human breast milk...
Chris kross there is enough proof to know how bad animals farms are, u just dont want to admit it. If u have some more shitty arguments, i’ll link this, u are pretty much not informed at all :) www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/jun/19/why-you-should-go-animal-free-arguments-in-favour-of-meat-eating-debunked-plant-based
This is heartbreaking. My wife and I are vegan because of this... We don’t have to eat meat.. but we are so selfish that we do.. 😔 I don’t and never will.. thanks for showing this to the world.. we need to make a change..
Theaterlabel NL that is probably the most stupid thing I've herd ok listen not all countries treat cows this way you know right so go educate your sorry ass and stop commenting bullshit
Lauren RAGE!!!! Hahahahaha, girl.. seriously.. watch al the doc’s.. you never did i can tell by the way you are reacting right now..There is NO reason to hurt animals or eat them..I never said that all country’s do it this way.. so don’t act tough behind your little screen and just be silent if you are only looking for a fight. Grow up . I am vegan because I don’t want to eat meat, and yeah that’s because there is no good in killing animals and thinking we are free to do that. So think again and read the comment before you talk, trust me.. It Will do you good..now bye bye little angry kitten..😉
I once went to a Dairy farm for my eighth Birthday What a Terrible way to Celebrate an anniversary of You being born by supporting this When I was there I got to feed a baby Cow and now that I look back on it those babys were not with there mothers like not even close they even admitted the Males will go to slaughter while the females will live at there farm and I was sad about that bc the Baby cow I was feeding milk to was a Male I wish to start a Sanctuary for these animals like save them or buy them from Dairy farmers and give them a New life And if possible take the Baby cow and the Mother and re unite them That would be a site to see wouldn't it Along with Goats, Sheep, Chicken (especially male chickens), and Rodeo Horses any animal that is used for Exploitation to live a Life of pain would be at that farm knowing Love and Passion living a Life that a Being deserves For you shouldn't Kill them or torture them for Simply Living
Joanne Wink you aren’t a horrible person. These videos, and the whole vegan message, are built on making people feel the way you do. You watched an 8 minutes video that is filled with LANGUAGE that is specifically designed to evoke bad feelings. Manure does not just “rot and fester”, all cows are not motherly (some are some aren’t), and cows aren’t humans. They do not think like humans, don’t operate like humans, and very likely don’t feel like humans. Unlike this guy, I spend every day with cows. My life revolves around them and doing what is best for them. Some things are unpleasant of course, but name one life form that doesn’t have unpleasant experiences in their life? It’s as inherent to life as pleasant experiences are. I mean, you were just made to feel unpleasant by this guys 8 minute biased video. If you love dairy but hate massive farms, look into organic milk and grass milk. Although there are SOME bs organic farms, the vast majority are small grazing centric family farms. If you have real questions about dairy farming and would like to hear from someone who is involved with animals beyond making “trendy” vegan videos, feel free to contact me.
@@Mothers_milk Cows grief for WEEKS, maybe even for months. If they get separated too many times, they suffer from terrible psychological damage. It's insane that most people don't realize the fact that these are sentient beings, they feel pain, they feel emotions, they are aware of the world ect. An absolutely a disgusting comment you made there.
@@nathantozier2599 So... This is a bias coming from a dairy farmer? ''Some things are unpleasant of course'' you mean the separation between the mother and the calf? Or maybe the forceful artificial insemination? These things that Ed showed in the video HAPPEN IN EVERY SINGLE DAIRY FARM. Without it, dairy could simply not be produced in such mass quantities.
As a farmer i think you're over reacting. What happens there is no abuse of an animal and the animals are all very clean. The cows dont stay in ''prisons'' they go outside every morning and in the evening they come home to eat and sleep. The calfs are taken away so that we can take care of it easyer and we dont have to be in dangerous situations in what the mother try's to protect the calf while whe try to help te calf and become better again. Also the first days after a calf is born it gets fet with milk from its own mother. And a farmer loves its animals and takes care of them with everything i can. I know a farmer who sometimes works from 5:30 am and stops at 01:00 am with just one brake in between. This guy wod rather have food for his cows as for himself. We farmers love our animals an will do anything to give them a as good as possoble life. And i'm proud to say that i wake up tommorow at 4:30am to go and take care of my animals and make sure there will be food in the supermarket you go to to buy your food. #farmers feed the world #love my job, love my way of life
T H - where do the cows go when they aren’t making money for you anymore? Go ahead and check out some slaughterhouse videos. Since you love the animals so much I’m sure it will give you joy.
It makes me feel so sick knowing my dad goes through a litre of milk every 3 days! every 3 days! and he constantly complains about stomach pains, unable to barely walk anywhere anymore without getting tired and having to have a 3 hour nap from just walking to the corner shop. It's disgusting, and I cannot even take him seriously anymore because he constantly tells me how I'm in the wrong for no longer incorporating dairy into my diet, however, he's the one who can barely walk because his bones are too weak, constant stomach pains and napping throughout the day? Absolute joke that he lives off dairy, meat and omelettes, and never incorporates fruit and veg, as it's apparently "too harmful for his body"...what?!
Can you not convince him to try a month of a vegan diet if you cook all his foods to see if he feels physically better? Tell him it's what you want as a Christmas gift lol
He thinks it tastes like cardboard and whenever I try and slip almond milk in his tea he can taste it, and makes another tea, but with of course cows milk:/
Tried that many times, but as soon as he eats vegetables he's in constant pain and unable to eat for about a week, so he lives off chicken soon in that time. I just cannot imagine how messed up his digestion system is from all the harm from animal products, that even vegetables struggle moving through
Why are you jealous of him? His whole body is fucked up, but he doesn't want to admit its animal products, instead he handles it by taking medication/ pain killer everyday. And drinks fizzy flavoured water to "help with the stomach problems" lol wtf it doesn't even make sense what he goes on about
I'm not even an animal lover. Don't ever want to have pets or anything. But wow, this broke my heart. How can people love their dogs and cats yet eat and drink meat and milk 😔
I've got tears literally pouring from my eyes right now. I had no idea the conditions of these pour animals were so awful. Please share and help educate the world on consequences of our selfish conveniences.
Meat is not selfish bc we need them if u survive without them which is hard but dairy should be less and be with their baby but we r primary carnivore because our great 7000 times grandpa always hunt even plant available
@fucking bad ass fucking bad ass Fulfill our desires? Desires that could get us hurt? Or get someone else hurt? So you mean full full our sins? We have to do anything to full full these sins? James 1:14-15 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death. “We are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we are sinners.” ~ R.C. Sproul
@@hanphilnoffz8827 It is 110% possible to survive without meat - Millions of people around the world, including myself do it everyday. We don’t NEED meat. We WANT meat to satisfy our pleasurable taste buds. We’re actually NOT designed to be carnivores. If you remembered simple World History from High School you were taught about our ancestors in Paleolithic times and their Natural diet; consisted of high amounts of nuts, berries, vegetables, and other various plants. As humans got more advanced and families got larger we needed to up the game of food supply so Males began hunting animals. Hence the name Hunter Gatherers. Keep in mind Hunting was not always guaranteed, but the Earth always supplies the nutrients from the ground (the Gathering). Therefore even though we began to eat small amounts of flesh our main diets revolved around plant material. Which is also why we have square like morals in the back of our mouth made for crushing nuts and fibrous plants rather than razor sharp blades to tear flesh like a lion would. We don’t have claws or sharp nails to attack our prey. We have soft square like nails. And Also why our intestines can stretch 22 feet long - to break down all the fiber from plants. Carnivores have single short intestines which make it easier to break down meat. They also swallow there bites whole and raw in which they have extremely strong stomach acids to kill any bacteria in it. We however lack the enzymes to break down meat which is why we must apply heat to the flesh before consuming it. Since it takes an unnatural amount of times to digest this flesh and because we lack certain chemicals to break it down there is a rise in Colon Cancer that’s related to high consumptions of meat. Cardiovascular disease also effects many Americans today because our high meat diets. There’s so many other ailments that meat causes in the human body but it’s too much to type all here. Because I’d also like to remind you that the rate of animals being bred, slaughtered, and packaged for our conveniences is indeed unsustainable. Set aside the health risks of eating meat for a minute and let’s look at the environmental catastrophes that are happening because of Agriculture. In the last 40 years 20% of the Amazon Rain Forest has been destroyed for the production of Agriculture and is expected to be gone in about 50 years if humans don’t counteract this problem. 1 hamburger Patty (so your McDonald’s Cheeseburger) takes 660 Gallons of water to produce. Agriculture accounts for 70% of human fresh water consumption. Livestock is a major contribution to growing green house gasses, each year they contribute 14.5% to climate emissions. Over grazing for lands contribute to environmental instability. These are just some of the facts of what our habits are doing to the world. Now yes, you may be thinking “Well don’t crops contribute to the effects of Agriculture?” Yes they do. ALL Agriculture today is going to effect the environment because of the 8 billion people it has to feed. But there IS A WAY to do it where we can minimize the environmental effects, while savings lives, and generating healthier human populations. And the answer is simple: Eat less Animals, Eat more Plants. Plant based - agriculture generates 1.5 Trillion MORE pounds of “product” than animal agriculture. We can feed MORE people while REDUCING our climate emissions to HAlF of per produced calorie of plants grown! If the whole world were ready to make the change we could use the crops that’s grown to force feed livestock and give it to people who are starving. We could honestly solve world hunger! We could use the land that’s being forced to breed animals, for crops that PEOPLE can eat. We can do it. But the change starts with each one of us. It starts with you. “Be the change you want to see in the world.” ~ Gandhi
This breaks my heart. It's truly awful. I don't understand how there are people that can genuinely say the don't care. I've been vegan for almost 3 years and I hate that I didn't do it sooner, you are very brave going out to these sites. I would break down on the spot. I'm glad there are people like you making others aware of the cruelty and horror of these industries
Melissa Avalos We have our own cow and we milk her because she would otherwise be in pain. If she were to stop giving milk tomorrow, then we would most likely get another calf and drink nut milks until they were producing. We are already thinking of getting one because our girl has been so desperate for a baby of her own. We see it as protecting from the future they would otherwise have in a dairy farm. An adult cow makes too much milk for any healthy baby and just leaving it could cause them pain. When our girl stops producing, we will still keep her for the rest of her (hopefully) long life.
It’s maddening how people don’t think of this when they consume these products or the meat. Some of them are plain none- empathic, and some choose not to see, and ignore it. Thank you for this video ❤️❤️
What has this world come to lmao people are mad at people killing animals or using them for recourses when we have been doing this forever it’s just how it is. There is a reason humans are at the top of the food chain because we are super good at efficiently collecting animals and gaining from them. Also for the people who are going to tell me to go vegan it’s not going to happen ever because, mart taste pretty good tbh vegan food fast more processed than a McDonald’s hamburger, and yes I would kill an animal for food
Yes they kick and slap them because if they just tap them the cow doesn't feel it. You do realize slapping animals like pigs and cows doesn't hurt them there skin is super thick.
@@chriskross8984 That very well could be, and I respect you for being critical of media that is obviously intended to persuade. However, it seems unlikely that the worst farms would allow him to visit, let alone film. I grew up surrounded by dairy farms and visited them often. Some definitely offer a better quality of life than others. And yet, none of them had figured out a way to make a cow indefinitely produce milk for no reason. Even on the kindest farms, dairy cows must be forcefully impregnated on an annual basis, separated from the calves so the milk can be sold and not consumed, and slaughtered prematurely (usually 4-5 yeas old out of a 20+ year lifespan) when they stop producing. Any other practice cuts into the farmer's profits which, in the U.S. at least,are so slim they can be nonexistent. (Annual federal dairy subsidies funded by taxpayers are equivalent to 73% of the farmers' marketplace revenue an are the only reason most dairy farms still exist in the U.S.).
I work on a dairy farm and have to take the calf away from the mother. It does suck but nothing is worse than finding the calf barely breathing laying in a lifeless body because her mother sat on him.
I remember last year a kid in my class was joking about how KFC standed for "Killing friendly chicken" which caused me to be vegan... And i'm thankful!!! ❤️❤️
That was him being "gentle" because the camera was on him (with the calf). Everything about this is disgusting, our treatment of these animals, their exposure to such filth and then mixing all the milk from all the cows together so if even one of them is infected it is no in all of the milk. Everything. Please make it stop. Stop drinking and eating these products. Just think of people eating ice cream to feel good, knowing this is what it is from. Ughhh. Thanks for your work Ed.
Teen Vegan I am a middle aged woman who HATES Facebook.... But I have just shared this (and Joey Carbstrong's) video, it's the first thing I have EVER posted on it and I don't care what anyone thinks. Neither should you, it's brilliant that you are vegan. Both my kids are now and my 9 year old was crying watching this. You never know when you are planting a seed... 😊
Teen Vegan that's awesome! My mum is 77 and thinks dairy is healthy! She will never be convinced. The rest of my family think we're crazy but they can see we are all fine and not fading away. We eat a super healthy (mostly organic) diet. I know it's the right thing to do, hopefully some of my family will wake up. My daughter's friend is showing real interest in being vegan.... Keep going and don't ever let anyone put you down. I find ignoring comments worked very well, no one says anything any more 😊😊😊
Clare Birschel I learned that if I'm just patient and talk very kindly people are more inclined to listen. When people say they like to eat meat I smile and say "I completely understand! Meat tastes really good but here are some reasons why it's bad for you, animals, and the environment". It helps if you have facts and use big words and smile a lot😂 I love educating people so I don't mind if at first they're ignorant. We were all like them once☺️
Thank you Ed for opening peoples eyes and helping them realize what the food industry is doing your making a huge difference just by spreading awareness 😎
this video made me finally go from vegetarian to vegan. i was already transitioning to vegan but couldn’t stop eating cheese occasionally but this finally made me go cold turkey. never again. just imagining the pain both the mother and child must feel being separated from one another and the enslavement of the mother is just heartbreaking.
Shark Arise it’s a way of life deal with it and in a true sense of things if you really had a high IQ you would realize you can’t be a vegan in this world we use so much materials that come from animals such as Tires, rubber, paint, glue, and plastics. Even majority of medication is from animal products the organic food has animal manure as you can’t use fertilizer!🤭😷🚜
Shark Arise so you are telling me you don’t use planes buses cars even trains because every one of them have animal product you really must live a boring life if you don’t travel! I met this women that was a vegan outside a slaughter house and she was laying flowers that were from a large supermarket which I know personally that they keep bees to pollinate there flowers it’s so funny to see how clumsy you guys really are and the fairytale you live in I have yet to meet a vegan that is from the countryside! Only people from large city’s are vegan as they are following a trend in the hipster lifestyle vegans understanding farming is like a bus driver being a doctor
@@gy5rffg5rf as they say in the lion King its the circle of life we eat animals because our tast buds like it its not because we are trying to be nasty we kill animals humanly it may not look it but it has been proven by people a lot smarter them you and me that study it for a living! I can tell you one bit of advice when a cow is chewing they are happy as in this video there brains don't function like are as we are a different species! The term used when they are chewing is "chewing there cud"
@@aidnic901 Dear aidnic901, I am much more optimistic. You are right there are many forces that are committed to keeping the atrocities ‘hidden’. But they are feeling increasing pressure. Everyday, I see more evidence of vegan dishes for example available in restaurants, chocolate shops, and even ice cream shops! Certainly, we have a LONG way to go but here are some simple things you can do. This weekend for example, I asked two local bakeries about what ‘vegan’ options they had; neither was outstanding but they made an effort and one even checked the recipe file for the products. At the chocolate shop, they indeed had some that were clearly vegan; a couple we were told were but on reading rhe ingredients at home ‘they weren’t. If you are told a product is ‘vegan’ take time in the store (hold the line up if necessary) and read the ingredients. We just have to keep asking. We ordered Indian food one evening. We had the owner describe the vegan options. He was most willing. Everyday I am asking about vegan options. If we all do the same, the message gets reinforced and proprieties will increasingly learn there is a demand - that is growing. It also makes an impact on other customers around you as it makes them reflect on their choices. Let’s all work together. A Proud Vegan.
Thanks Ed. In my non vegan years, I used to naively believe, that we were "sharing the milk" with the calves. The truth about our ruthless exploitation of these animals is well concealed from the general public. And here we've been ingesting all of "their pain, & sickness," believing it's good for us! When the truth is the polar opposite! It's not easy to be awake, but it's the only worthwhile way to be - both physically & spiritually. Much admiration for your courage, for exposing this industry's evil. What horrible karma must we be invoking, to inflict this kind of monstrosity on such gentle, docile, creatures. I shudder at the coming judgement on most of my species. Anyone who can feel, MUST awaken, before it's too late!
abberdail marie no it’s not just to take the milk calves carrying parasites because they were not born into a completely clean environment and could potentially kill the mother
Today, right now, i'm quitting dairy. A promise a myself and to these innocent cows. Was almost crying seeing this phase of what they go through. I can't be more selfish.
Hope you are still at it :) For me personally it took 2 weeks of getting used to oat milk, and when I tasted milk again I didn't even like it anymore. My skin also got better.
@@ZackAM08 by your logic: It's better to participate in a gang rape, than not to - because the woman will be raped either way, so might as well participate in it so that it at least leads to more pleasure overall. That way the terrible act of the rape at least lead to something good - more personal pleasure for me and the other rapists. Sounds off, right? The point of quitting dairy is to over time lower the consumer demand so much that the industry crumbles. Just like we have seen with animals exploited for fur. It became so socially unacceptable over time, that more and more people stopped using it, and thousands of farms stopped breeding animals to exploit, and shut down. In some countries it even became illigal eventually. It might sound improbable now, but this is how every social and ethical development ever has happened. More and more poeople oppose the status quoe, while investors pay for the development of new solutions (which is already happening). It likely that in a hundred years, we don't breed cows any longer to milk their breastmilk and shoot their calves - because people like the op and millions of others opposed it, and new and healthier, cheaper, tastier and sustainable options took its place.
It is amazing that a stranger will despise someone for sticking up for a poor defenceless / innocent being like this when anybody with a moral compass can see this is wrong
When you are Vegan, and you know this horrible thing that happens to this beautiful animals , the pain you feel in your heart is unbelievable. I feel like my heart broken.
You do realise the mother forgets about her calve within a few days and enjoys being milked, it relieves them from discomfort, cows enjoy being milked, also this isn't uk, the welfare in the UK is some of the best world wide
I cant say for entire India but certainly of the rural "traditional" India. The cow milk is like ambrosia in the traditional Hindu culture. Hence, the cow is revered in Hindu culture. In rural India (where these Hindu cultural norms are followed) , the cow baby/ calf is just treated and celebrated as the human baby birth in that farmer's home. Whenever the cow is to be milked, the calf has first right on that milk and hence is allowed to breastfed first for few minutes. Then the calf is forcefully separated from the cow and the cow is milked only for that family. The farmer understand the injustice to the calf and that is why cow is holy in India. Our Diwali festival of lights starts with "vasubaras", worshiping cow for her gracious behaviour towards human. Hence, cow is NOT killed or eaten in traditional Hindu India and my people are Lacto-vegetarian. It has religious background via Lord Krishna as well, but i wont go there). This is the humane way of milking cow. 1) allowing calf first on the milk. 2) being respectful and thankful to the cow for her grace to humans. Now, it comes to modern India with mechanized dairies, increasing westernization of traditional society and introduction of meat consumption (thanks (!?) to Ibrahimic religions for invading India, and ruining/degrading Hindu traditions), help us Gods 🙏🙏🙏.
Very interesting - that sounds a lot less cruel than industrial dairy farming. But the calf is still forcefully seperated right? And while being thankful is better than just taking the milk, the cow isn't truly being gracious or "giving" her milk, it is taken from her and she has no choice. I don't wish to disrespect you beliefs and culture, but I don't think it is the cows wish to feed us humans. Sad to hear that industrial farming is even being introduced now, that is much worse in every way...
@@t-rexkalita1379 The cow whisperer! I'm sure it loves humans touching its teats... In dairy farms, cows do willingly go the milking stations, but that's only because their udders become so uncomfortably full (same as what happens to women breastfeeding).
Please watch and share this guys. Hopefully it will change some minds.
This was the worst thing I've ever seen in person and something I never expected to witness.
No product is worth this abuse.
Unfortunately, I've witnessed MUCH worse when I visited an abatoir as a child.
Earthling Ed ...Thank u Ed for this enlightenment I can share with others hurts my heart to the max 😭
Reverend Eslam ...well this is STILL bad regardless of how much worse it was before
My wonder is how they allowed you such access. It almost makes me think they want to show you how *good* their practices are! If so, the disconnect is unfathomable. How were you allowed to do this? And thank you for bearing witness to these things to get the word out. I know I couldn't do it, myself. We all have a different calling around the cause. I'm still trying to find mine.
IronicallyChristina ... good question I wonder that myself
I was following a vegetarian diet for 1 year. In the beginning, I thought being vegan is too much and unnecessary. Then after learning the process behind dairy products I am finally able to convince myself to become vegan. Thanks for sharing the right information and knowledge.
I mean, this is not all farms, some farmers treat there amimals properly until there ready to be harvested.
Farmers like that treat animals like this need to be arrested.
@@heh650 But the problem is ALL dairy farms steal the children from the mothers and all the cows on all the dairy farms will still end up in the slaughterhouse. Unfortunately there is no humane way for the dairy industry to exist.
This cruelty only happens because we are purchasing their products.
Cheers 🍻
@@heh650 Animals aren't crops....fruit, veggies and other plants are harvested.
@@heh650in the end, the result is the same.
One may even argue that it's potentially worse taking away a life they enjoyed, and would rather continue enjoying.
Thank you for choosing compassion.
What I find horrifying is that this is one of the *nicer* dairy farms I've seen footage of. Like. As awful as this is, I've seen so much worse.
The whole industry deserves to be abolished.
Good luck abolishing cheese icecream butter .........etc from the markets
It won't happen as you will face economic crisis no government wants to face and jobless crisis and angry mobs of cheese lovers who don't give a $hit about cows

If you are chinese then I'm proud you gave up meat knowing that east Asia consumes a lot of it
Just knowing that Ed caressing that baby it is the only kindness that the animal will receive for their whole, short life, is heartbreaking. As a mother of three, my heart breaks for all moms who are separated from their babies, humans and animal.
💔
Don't worry that baby(calf) will live a wonderful life inside my belly🤣🤣
true 😢
Because they do get loved. Farmers are numb to it as the death of cows in herd is natural. Old cows are very expensive to take care of. They aren’t just used for meat. They are used in many other applications. For example, the hooves get keratin extracted and that’s used in many shampoos. They produce insulin too
@@Ghost-mg7olare you a CCP troll?
recently went vegan and ive had some trouble shopping since i never realized how many products have milk, whey, butter etc in them. ive thought about giving up but these videos really remind me of how disgusting the industry is and how i cant continue to support it
i just wish i had more of an impact. even going vegan, theses injustices and this abuse will continue to happen, regardless of what i do
Yes we have a long way to go thats true. But every vegan more on the planet has ripple effects. I became vegan because I met a vegan. We should not convince people but just be an example and inspire. I live in Berlin and more and more and more people go vagan here. And it has ripple effects. We cast a vote by what we think, do and buy

I try and share these types of videos with my family and they always say "I don't want to see that it's too upsetting"....don't you see a problem then?...
Jlizzy yes the hypocrisy is real. My friends and family do the same thing. They refuse to watch these videos then when I ask them why they support it they literally say “I just like meat too much” or “I just don’t care”
Your response should be " imagine how they feel they have to live it" people need to have empathy. As long as they consume they are paying for this to be done. People hate feeling that guilt but that is the truth
Omg same. They're so ignorant
My mother does that. If I tell her of some kind of animal abuse, she tries to guilt-trip me for the rest of the day with “Oh, I wish you hadn’t told me. You’ve really upset me”. It’s not me that upset you, though, it’s what’s being done to these animals.

Being vegan is like knowing the Holocaust is going on, but no one believes you or even makes fun of you for trying to spread the message to make it stop.
Yup!!
😭😭its absolutly horrible
Yes thank you
That reminds me a lot of a person from the book night
I agree with the general sentiment and the reprehensible and unjustifiable harm being done to animals, yet I think drawing these comparisons is wrong and does more harm than good.
It can be very triggering and unsympathetic for the people who had to live through this or lost their family in the Holocaust. This is more of a provocation to see the brutality, I understand that, but even when cutting out the part of human decency towards others in using one group of people that has been decimated against other beings which are being brutally killed and the fact that this hurts individuals affected, this is also factually wrong.
The Holocaust had the objective to literally obliterate an entire ethnic/religious people, exterminate every last one until no one was left because of unreasonable hate and the conceived 'superiority' complex of N*zis which made them desire a disgusting ideal of only having their own ethnic group remain.
The reasons to slaughter and exploit all those animals is completely different; people want to use them for food - which does not make this in any way, shape, or form justifiable but it just shows that this completely counteracts an eradication of a species. Quite in the contrary, we artificially breed thousands over thousands of these poor individuals into existence every day just to sustain their population.
Those animals are also seen as inferior and are brutally killed and this is a great injustice of the contemporary world, yes, but why do we need to use, almost prey upon, one suffering in order to raise awareness for another, completely different and not really comparable one? Let's rather try constructive but blatant spreading of information and awareness of these atrocities instead of utilizing the pain of other marginalized communities.
There's so much beauty in these animals. So much innocence in their eyes

@@aryansarkar13 Interesting concept
After seeing this video and some videos of cows and pigs bonding, playing, and loving, I have immediately become a vegan. Before I used to say, what is the point? I can't save them all...I can't stop this completely...but just because you can't save all animals from this fate by yourself, doesn't mean you don't have a profound effect on some. Each animal is individual, and we, as humans wouldn't give up trying to help if our own young were suffering. The few individuals you do save from this life are profoundly and deeply affected. Each living creature that is alive and well because of your actions would tell you it was worth it. Each mother who didn't have to lose her baby would thank you from the bottom of her soul. You are making a difference one living being at a time- and that matters.
Thank you for going vegan! You are so right. Even if we can't save them all, we can save some, and we don't have to contribute to more suffering by being morally complicit. Thank you for making the change and sharing your perspective.

And the same is true for rescued calves that go and live in animal sanctuaries
The problem is that it seems too many calves (espescially male calves) are sent to slaughter because they are too costly to keep around.. all this in the name of milk production (for human consumption).
That's the difference between calves and puppies, you see.. at least puppies get to live

@@christophernupp4591 Your Bible has no place in a conversation about morality. The Bible condones slavery, rape, and the subjugation of women and LGBT people. Your religion does not dictate moral truth, and it does not absolve you of moral responsibility to stop murdering and torturing sentient animals. Also, vegans agree that breeding puppies is immoral, so your point is moot and a textbook case of whataboutism. You're trying to morally implicate the vegan so they stop criticizing the dairy industry, but it doesn't matter what happens to dogs. We're talking about how immoral it is to consume dairy. Stay on topic. It is not okay to exploit a female cow's reproductive system, take her baby, and steal her milk so humans can consume it. Her milk does not belong to us, and the process required to produce it causes tremendous suffering.
nothing, they will become steak
I never thought this would happen to me but one of Ed's videos turned me into a vegan over night. I had to buy milk for a family member and as I stood in the super market before the shelves with milk I started to cry. I took the carton with no happy face of cow on it and paid for it. I told my family member that I can longer be part of this cruelty in any way, shape or form. Luckily my choice is being respected. Not sure how many more tears I will shed as this is all sinking in on all levels.

I did work experience before I was vegan when I wanted to be a vet on a dairy farm. the milking parlour looked exactly the same, although the one in the video looked much cleaner (cows hadn't pooed all over the place and the milking machines yet). there were isolation areas for calves. the hardest thing I saw was one of the cows teet's had been damaged by kicking and the end was sort of hanging off- so all the milk from that one teet would be bloodied. the farmer said it would cost about £150 to fix it. so the cow was sent to the slaughterhouse the same day.
this was a uk 'nice' farm as we are marketed, and I really see no difference between it and the one in this video, the cows were still yelled at with hit with rubber tubing if they did not voluntarily go where they were told
cows are still slaughtered and exploited in the dairy industry.
Sir/maam you must understand that this happens to 1 out of 900 cows and injuries are something that will happen no matter what, the life expectancy and survival rate if offspring is much greater on farms than in nature and the cows dont starve in the winter like in nature. Cows walk into the milking shed willingly
@@lordoftherims436 cows do not 'willingly' walk into the milking shed to have their milk, made for their offspring stolen for human consumption. They are herded in because they are afraid and herd animals, when they don't comply they are hit (how brutally is dependent on the farm), the farm I was on used a robotic metal gate to force the cows into a smaller and smaller space so they had to enter the milking lines. Some cows yes were more compliant because they had been conditioned after so long to just comply and avoid conflict, but the cows who had only first calved recently would kick at the milking machines and be visibly uncomfortable. I do understand injuries are less frequent as a reason for slaughter (although after researching, your 1 in 900 seems misguided and I would encourage you to find evidence to support this before using it as an argument) , but regardless every cow should she become unable to carry any more babies will be slaughtered. All of the cows who go in the milking shed were artificially inseminated in the first place, and there is nothing willful about being held in a metal cage that prevents movement, and having a farmer forcibly impregnate you. Cows lived naturally in the wild as part of our ecosystem, the ones we see in farms are selectively bred to be as beneficial to us as possible. They are bred into a life of subservience and suffering, I think it would be more moral to stop breeding cattle for our consumption/benefit, and to let that farmland repopulate with wild animals. There are also sanctuaries like Edgar's mission that rescue farm animals and give them happy, safe and comfortable lives to live out the life span they were supposed to have.
My cows skip into the milking parlour from excitement. Not fear.
@@alastairatcheson1407 Haha I would love to see that. I just searched to see if there was any videos and I found some of cows skipping excitedly going out into grass for the first time (after I'm guessing a long winter). It was like they were very happy to have a bit more freedom than they had grown used to. Imagine how excited they'd be to go to a sanctuary where they could roam free and live out long non-subservient lives :)
Regardless of how happy your cows may appear to be milked (again, would love to see it with my own eyes)I can't support the dairy industry because of how those same cows who feel emotions just as we do- will feel when they go to the slaughterhouse.
Alastair Atcheson provably because it’s the only way for them to have their swollen udders drained, it feels good for them which is why they go willingly. Doesn’t make it okay though

@@abcdidgh879 It does happen. In a third world country like ours, what makes you think that farms and dairies will adhere to rules and regulations ? Given our "chalta hain" attitude, I shudder to imagine how gross the animals are being treated in our farms.
Hi, ex dairy farmer here.
1. By taking away the calves it means we can put them in a pen with others so we can needle them for diseases and things they won't be immune to if they were to stay out with the mother. Mother's milk is vital yes, but like humans, that milk isn't going to protect you from anything.
2. Taking them out of the while and putting them in a shed as some do, protects them from foxes who can target calves and mothers giving birth. Now if you have ever seen what a fox can do to a calf and a full sized cow while in a vulnerable position, you'll never trust them again. That's why foxes are hunted. We have had calves in the night who have lost tongues and tails. We have bad a mother who had a teat ripped off while giving birth. Now tell me dairy farmers don't care.
3. If a calf isn't needed for adding to the herd, it can stay with the mother if it doesn't get sold. However, if you don't take the calf away from the mother, that calf can continuously suck on the mother's teats even after they have dried up. You have no idea how frustrating this is for a mother cow, no idea. It's consistent harassment 70 percent of the day.
4. As with anything, things are generalised. You will find that because one person has shown a poorly maintained farm or doesn't treat his stock right it means that every farmer is like this. You need to realise this is a business, you don't make money off sick stock. It takes thousands of dollars to feed them. This includes grain to feed them, seed to plant, fertiliser to grow the grass, fuel to keep machinery going, maintenance on that machinery, thousands on water to irrigate paddocks so the germination reaches maximum potential and to hose down dairies after cows have shat everywhere, money for medical equipment so calves can grow up free from insects and potential internal problems.
We need to make sure we have guns to protect our stock from foxes (whom people love oh so much) and that odd dog that wants a thrill kill.
Dairy farmers farm for the milk yes but they wouldn't do it if they didn't love working with animals. There's nothing more distressing finding out the cows have broken through your new fence and are out on the road where they can be hit by drivers who may or not be paying attention to the road. Some farmers play classical music for their cows to help calm them down, some put out big brushes in their paddocks because cows love to scratch soooo much. Calves grow up and some a put back in the herd so mother and calf are together again. Have you ever seen a cow reject her calf just as it was born? Now THAT is heartbreaking.
@@gerardistephens5142 exactly, if calves are lwft unchecked with the cows, they can damage cow's udder and make it bleed.
No farmer wants to see his cows pain. This is a massive 'propaganda' (yes it is) of PETA.
@@abcdidgh879 we had a calf who lost his tail soon after he was born. Did we call him Stumpy? No we called him Lucky because he was lucky the fox didn't take more.

@@taylersampson2210 So without humans the cows in nature are going to die from her own newborn baby? What's a bullshit.
Like the exploitation of people through enslavement, I hope one day the exploitation of animals will become a thing of the past. These old traditions are barberic, but with people like you and more people joining the move to a plant based diet, the tide is slowly turning
Its just part of our nature. Not the abuse, but meat eating.
Angel Leon yes eating meat for some animals is a part of the natural cycle of life, but show me another species that raises billions of animals in captivity and the expense of the planet, pumps them full of hormones and antibiotics so you can have a fully grown, fat chicken in less than 6 months.. that’s not natural
@Xavier Rodriguez Hence why we should use that advancement to find more efficient, healthy, sustainable and morally progressive ways to get our nutrition.
You are right, no modern western life is in any way natural. We find ways to cut out unneccecary labour and exploitation. That is exactly what a plant based diet does. It reduces cost, cuts out middle men, saves land, water and tons of other rescourses and provides a diet with all nutrients we need. It's only a question of time until foods that are perfectly designed for humans can be produced, but market power, human lust and "tradition" is holding that progression back. It's all market driven. As long as major companies can earn money on people not giving up habits, this advancement will take a long time.
If humanity really was interested in the future of their own children and the welfare of life in general on earth - we would do away with the animal exploitation in no time. Sadly, but not surprisingly, the world is run by people who want money and power.
LOL. It's not going anywhere.
We can't change what others do, we can only change what we do, then hopefully others will change.

@Max Smith this is an issue that effects everyone in the world because animal agriculture is the largest contributor of pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Also, most of the plants grown in the world are used to feed farmed animals, and all of those plants could be used to literally solve world hunger. There are so many more reasons to care about this issue, it's not just caring about cows. So just because it's not what you would like to fight against doesn't mean that it makes someone who cares about it a low person. Everyone has their passion and their calling in the world, don't put people down for fighting in something they believe in just because it's different from what you believe.

Rutvik Mehta good riddance
Sickens me what they do with the calves. I feel the mother's pain 😭
lmao
you're a cow?
To be clear, the calves are seperated from there moms because it does happen quite often that if you left the calf with their mom that the mom eventually will stand on their baby en kill or injure him/her. So it is for their own safety. Like vacination or operations; they don't look nice, but are in the longrun better for everyone

The way that man torments the animals is unimaginable. No mother should ever be away from her child no matter the species. Anyone that would do this to an animal has allowed Satan into their lives.

What a Terrible way to Celebrate an anniversary of You being born by supporting this
When I was there I got to feed a baby Cow and now that I look back on it those babys were not with there mothers like not even close they even admitted the Males will go to slaughter while the females will live at there farm and I was sad about that bc the Baby cow I was feeding milk to was a Male
I wish to start a Sanctuary for these animals like save them or buy them from Dairy farmers and give them a New life
And if possible take the Baby cow and the Mother and re unite them
That would be a site to see wouldn't it
Along with Goats, Sheep, Chicken (especially male chickens), and Rodeo Horses any animal that is used for Exploitation to live a Life of pain would be at that farm knowing Love and Passion living a Life that a Being deserves

Whattt whose idea was it doing this on your 8th birthday 💀
Im not vegan but i have a newborn and it caused me so much stress to see them take away that cow's newborn baby. I feel like a horrible person
Joanne Wink you aren’t a horrible person. These videos, and the whole vegan message, are built on making people feel the way you do.
You watched an 8 minutes video that is filled with LANGUAGE that is specifically designed to evoke bad feelings. Manure does not just “rot and fester”, all cows are not motherly (some are some aren’t), and cows aren’t humans. They do not think like humans, don’t operate like humans, and very likely don’t feel like humans.
Unlike this guy, I spend every day with cows. My life revolves around them and doing what is best for them. Some things are unpleasant of course, but name one life form that doesn’t have unpleasant experiences in their life? It’s as inherent to life as pleasant experiences are. I mean, you were just made to feel unpleasant by this guys 8 minute biased video.
If you love dairy but hate massive farms, look into organic milk and grass milk. Although there are SOME bs organic farms, the vast majority are small grazing centric family farms.
If you have real questions about dairy farming and would like to hear from someone who is involved with animals beyond making “trendy” vegan videos, feel free to contact me.

@@alkku5045 I know that and it's bad they have to die but If I it means I get my milk then I would kill them
As a farmer i think you're over reacting. What happens there is no abuse of an animal and the animals are all very clean. The cows dont stay in ''prisons'' they go outside every morning and in the evening they come home to eat and sleep. The calfs are taken away so that we can take care of it easyer and we dont have to be in dangerous situations in what the mother try's to protect the calf while whe try to help te calf and become better again. Also the first days after a calf is born it gets fet with milk from its own mother. And a farmer loves its animals and takes care of them with everything i can. I know a farmer who sometimes works from 5:30 am and stops at 01:00 am with just one brake in between. This guy wod rather have food for his cows as for himself. We farmers love our animals an will do anything to give them a as good as possoble life.
And i'm proud to say that i wake up tommorow at 4:30am to go and take care of my animals and make sure there will be food in the supermarket you go to to buy your food.

Why are you jealous of him? His whole body is fucked up, but he doesn't want to admit its animal products, instead he handles it by taking medication/ pain killer everyday. And drinks fizzy flavoured water to "help with the stomach problems" lol wtf it doesn't even make sense what he goes on about

“We are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we are sinners.” ~ R.C. Sproul
@@hanphilnoffz8827 It is 110% possible to survive without meat - Millions of people around the world, including myself do it everyday. We don’t NEED meat. We WANT meat to satisfy our pleasurable taste buds. We’re actually NOT designed to be carnivores. If you remembered simple World History from High School you were taught about our ancestors in Paleolithic times and their Natural diet; consisted of high amounts of nuts, berries, vegetables, and other various plants. As humans got more advanced and families got larger we needed to up the game of food supply so Males began hunting animals. Hence the name Hunter Gatherers. Keep in mind Hunting was not always guaranteed, but the Earth always supplies the nutrients from the ground (the Gathering). Therefore even though we began to eat small amounts of flesh our main diets revolved around plant material. Which is also why we have square like morals in the back of our mouth made for crushing nuts and fibrous plants rather than razor sharp blades to tear flesh like a lion would. We don’t have claws or sharp nails to attack our prey. We have soft square like nails. And Also why our intestines can stretch 22 feet long - to break down all the fiber from plants. Carnivores have single short intestines which make it easier to break down meat. They also swallow there bites whole and raw in which they have extremely strong stomach acids to kill any bacteria in it. We however lack the enzymes to break down meat which is why we must apply heat to the flesh before consuming it. Since it takes an unnatural amount of times to digest this flesh and because we lack certain chemicals to break it down there is a rise in Colon Cancer that’s related to high consumptions of meat. Cardiovascular disease also effects many Americans today because our high meat diets. There’s so many other ailments that meat causes in the human body but it’s too much to type all here. Because I’d also like to remind you that the rate of animals being bred, slaughtered, and packaged for our conveniences is indeed unsustainable. Set aside the health risks of eating meat for a minute and let’s look at the environmental catastrophes that are happening because of Agriculture. In the last 40 years 20% of the Amazon Rain Forest has been destroyed for the production of Agriculture and is expected to be gone in about 50 years if humans don’t counteract this problem. 1 hamburger Patty (so your McDonald’s Cheeseburger) takes 660 Gallons of water to produce. Agriculture accounts for 70% of human fresh water consumption. Livestock is a major contribution to growing green house gasses, each year they contribute 14.5% to climate emissions. Over grazing for lands contribute to environmental instability. These are just some of the facts of what our habits are doing to the world. Now yes, you may be thinking “Well don’t crops contribute to the effects of Agriculture?” Yes they do. ALL Agriculture today is going to effect the environment because of the 8 billion people it has to feed. But there IS A WAY to do it where we can minimize the environmental effects, while savings lives, and generating healthier human populations. And the answer is simple: Eat less Animals, Eat more Plants. Plant based - agriculture generates 1.5 Trillion MORE pounds of “product” than animal agriculture. We can feed MORE people while REDUCING our climate emissions to HAlF of per produced calorie of plants grown! If the whole world were ready to make the change we could use the crops that’s grown to force feed livestock and give it to people who are starving. We could honestly solve world hunger! We could use the land that’s being forced to breed animals, for crops that PEOPLE can eat. We can do it. But the change starts with each one of us. It starts with you.

To think I drink this is 💯satisfying
Melissa Avalos
We have our own cow and we milk her because she would otherwise be in pain. If she were to stop giving milk tomorrow, then we would most likely get another calf and drink nut milks until they were producing. We are already thinking of getting one because our girl has been so desperate for a baby of her own. We see it as protecting from the future they would otherwise have in a dairy farm. An adult cow makes too much milk for any healthy baby and just leaving it could cause them pain. When our girl stops producing, we will still keep her for the rest of her (hopefully) long life.

@@chriskross8984 That very well could be, and I respect you for being critical of media that is obviously intended to persuade. However, it seems unlikely that the worst farms would allow him to visit, let alone film. I grew up surrounded by dairy farms and visited them often. Some definitely offer a better quality of life than others. And yet, none of them had figured out a way to make a cow indefinitely produce milk for no reason. Even on the kindest farms, dairy cows must be forcefully impregnated on an annual basis, separated from the calves so the milk can be sold and not consumed, and slaughtered prematurely (usually 4-5 yeas old out of a 20+ year lifespan) when they stop producing. Any other practice cuts into the farmer's profits which, in the U.S. at least,are so slim they can be nonexistent. (Annual federal dairy subsidies funded by taxpayers are equivalent to 73% of the farmers' marketplace revenue an are the only reason most dairy farms still exist in the U.S.).
No, we treat em like shit
Cause they dont care if a camera is on they do it the same way no matter what. Stop acting like they are hiding something.

Everything about this is disgusting, our treatment of these animals, their exposure to such filth and then mixing all the milk from all the cows together so if even one of them is infected it is no in all of the milk. Everything. Please make it stop. Stop drinking and eating these products.
Just think of people eating ice cream to feel good, knowing this is what it is from.
Ughhh.
Thanks for your work Ed.
Neal M what water do you drink. Probably isn’t vegan. You took it from fish so feck off you non vegan bastard.
@@poppythetiger4573 Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us
erangr91 you welcome. My business hours are 8 am - 8 pm
PoppyTheTiger lmaooooo hahahhaha wtf u are so uninformed
How do you know that's him being gentle and his treatment changes when the camera is off? Have you experience on a dairy farm? Genuine questions.
I want to share this video with my friends but I'm scared they'll think I'm too pushy. I'm doing it anyway because people need to see❤️😔
Teen Vegan I am a middle aged woman who HATES Facebook.... But I have just shared this (and Joey Carbstrong's) video, it's the first thing I have EVER posted on it and I don't care what anyone thinks. Neither should you, it's brilliant that you are vegan. Both my kids are now and my 9 year old was crying watching this. You never know when you are planting a seed... 😊
Clare Birschel my friend actually wants to go vegan!😊 I'm 14 btw and my family isn't vegan (my mom is actually on a low carb diet)😔
Teen Vegan that's awesome! My mum is 77 and thinks dairy is healthy! She will never be convinced. The rest of my family think we're crazy but they can see we are all fine and not fading away. We eat a super healthy (mostly organic) diet. I know it's the right thing to do, hopefully some of my family will wake up. My daughter's friend is showing real interest in being vegan.... Keep going and don't ever let anyone put you down. I find ignoring comments worked very well, no one says anything any more 😊😊😊
Clare Birschel I learned that if I'm just patient and talk very kindly people are more inclined to listen. When people say they like to eat meat I smile and say "I completely understand! Meat tastes really good but here are some reasons why it's bad for you, animals, and the environment". It helps if you have facts and use big words and smile a lot😂 I love educating people so I don't mind if at first they're ignorant. We were all like them once☺️
Teen Vegan me too I don't care anymore if they think I'm annoying
Thank you Ed for opening peoples eyes and helping them realize what the food industry is doing your making a huge difference just by spreading awareness 😎
this video made me finally go from vegetarian to vegan. i was already transitioning to vegan but couldn’t stop eating cheese occasionally but this finally made me go cold turkey. never again. just imagining the pain both the mother and child must feel being separated from one another and the enslavement of the mother is just heartbreaking.
Me too.
Thank you for being compassionate and choosing not to support this evil industry. I'm so proud of you.
Same here, I'm working harder to go vegan now! And don't forget about soy cheese - there's delicious options there!
It was hard for me not to cry when the baby was being taken away from the cow.
I know 🥺
That's how it works. If they aren't taken away the mother will get infected and die. Then the baby will die.
@@Doge5600 I literally just wanted to say the same thing!
If calf mixed with mature cow, thy will smack the calf thats why thy separated.
How it was whole ass some guy putting a cow into a cart while his mother sat there and did fuck all
Tomorrow morning, when i break my fast, i'm going vegan. forever.
Harder Master nope, i'm scared of most foods, i just never considered veganism.
Harder Master i've actually dropped 2lb :)
❤️❤️🙏🌱
Harder Master no actually, my secret is 200 calories a day. ;)
Blue North i have an eating disorder, i was just being snarky. 😂🙏 i'm in treatment now but thank you
that guy has no feelings pushing that baby around .I would love to kick that as hole right in the gonads feel some pain.
I would love to do that to a few vegans too🤪🧐I get on with any other person but not vegans you really have mental issues
"as hole" asshole*
Shark Arise it’s a way of life deal with it and in a true sense of things if you really had a high IQ you would realize you can’t be a vegan in this world we use so much materials that come from animals such as Tires, rubber, paint, glue, and plastics. Even majority of medication is from animal products the organic food has animal manure as you can’t use fertilizer!🤭😷🚜
Shark Arise so you are telling me you don’t use planes buses cars even trains because every one of them have animal product you really must live a boring life if you don’t travel! I met this women that was a vegan outside a slaughter house and she was laying flowers that were from a large supermarket which I know personally that they keep bees to pollinate there flowers it’s so funny to see how clumsy you guys really are and the fairytale you live in I have yet to meet a vegan that is from the countryside! Only people from large city’s are vegan as they are following a trend in the hipster lifestyle vegans understanding farming is like a bus driver being a doctor
@@gy5rffg5rf as they say in the lion King its the circle of life we eat animals because our tast buds like it its not because we are trying to be nasty we kill animals humanly it may not look it but it has been proven by people a lot smarter them you and me that study it for a living! I can tell you one bit of advice when a cow is chewing they are happy as in this video there brains don't function like are as we are a different species! The term used when they are chewing is "chewing there cud"
Unforgivable! This type of footage needs prime time TV. This needs to be shown and discussed more publicly and not hidden.
unfortunately, it's not gonna gain much recognition, the grapples and the hands of the bourgeois would very much like to hide this from the public.
@@aidnic901 Dear aidnic901, I am much more optimistic. You are right there are many forces that are committed to keeping the atrocities ‘hidden’. But they are feeling increasing pressure. Everyday, I see more evidence of vegan dishes for example available in restaurants, chocolate shops, and even ice cream shops!
Certainly, we have a LONG way to go but here are some simple things you can do. This weekend for example, I asked two local bakeries about what ‘vegan’ options they had; neither was outstanding but they made an effort and one even checked the recipe file for the products. At the chocolate shop, they indeed had some that were clearly vegan; a couple we were told were but on reading rhe ingredients at home ‘they weren’t. If you are told a product is ‘vegan’ take time in the store (hold the line up if necessary) and read the ingredients. We just have to keep asking. We ordered Indian food one evening. We had the owner describe the vegan options. He was most willing. Everyday I am asking about vegan options. If we all do the same, the message gets reinforced and proprieties will increasingly learn there is a demand - that is growing. It also makes an impact on other customers around you as it makes them reflect on their choices. Let’s all work together. A Proud Vegan.
it;s happen even in the beginning of time.
Thanks Ed. In my non vegan years, I used to naively believe, that we were "sharing the milk" with the calves. The truth about our ruthless exploitation of these animals is well concealed from the general public. And here we've been ingesting all of "their pain, & sickness," believing it's good for us! When the truth is the polar opposite! It's not easy to be awake, but it's the only worthwhile way to be - both physically & spiritually. Much admiration for your courage, for exposing this industry's evil. What horrible karma must we be invoking, to inflict this kind of monstrosity on such gentle, docile, creatures. I shudder at the coming judgement on most of my species. Anyone who can feel, MUST awaken, before it's too late!
I don't know how you stayed so straight faced. I was watching it and sobbing on the floor.

@@taylersampson2210 oh clever!
abberdail marie what is so sad about this the only reason that they take the baby is so that the cow is heathy and stays heathy
@@taylersampson2210 the only reason they take the baby away is to steal her mother's milk. Besides that, your argument is illogical
abberdail marie no it’s not just to take the milk calves carrying parasites because they were not born into a completely clean environment and could potentially kill the mother
The people who disliked the video are the people without humanity.
You see other dairy farms aren't like this
@@Ik3Devious s bro I'm not saying all farm diary like this.
Just telling that whoever disliked the video are people without humanity.
@@insmotiveindian5547 yeah i guess there the same people who eat meat Infront of vegan protesting and I'm a meat eater
@@Ik3Devious oh so I guess u disliked the video. Mr. Meat eater
@@Ik3Devious even after seeing this type of cruelty u still are a meat eater then I guarantee that u don't have humanity.
Today, right now, i'm quitting dairy. A promise a myself and to these innocent cows. Was almost crying seeing this phase of what they go through. I can't be more selfish.
Hope you are still at it :)
For me personally it took 2 weeks of getting used to oat milk, and when I tasted milk again I didn't even like it anymore. My skin also got better.
Ahh yes so the cows go true this torture for nothing
@@ZackAM08 by your logic: It's better to participate in a gang rape, than not to - because the woman will be raped either way, so might as well participate in it so that it at least leads to more pleasure overall. That way the terrible act of the rape at least lead to something good - more personal pleasure for me and the other rapists.
Sounds off, right?
The point of quitting dairy is to over time lower the consumer demand so much that the industry crumbles. Just like we have seen with animals exploited for fur. It became so socially unacceptable over time, that more and more people stopped using it, and thousands of farms stopped breeding animals to exploit, and shut down. In some countries it even became illigal eventually.
It might sound improbable now, but this is how every social and ethical development ever has happened. More and more poeople oppose the status quoe, while investors pay for the development of new solutions (which is already happening). It likely that in a hundred years, we don't breed cows any longer to milk their breastmilk and shoot their calves - because people like the op and millions of others opposed it, and new and healthier, cheaper, tastier and sustainable options took its place.
@@ZackAM08 uhm yes they do
Thank you :)
I got dairy ads on this vid, it's outrageous how stupid the TH-cam algorithm is sometimes
Well at least they wasted some of their money on u
@@blizzi8428 that's right, way to be optimistic
you like dairy huh? its yummy, mmmmm yummy milk and cheese
@@Joemama-rt4vi taste doesnt justify an action.
@@blizzi8428 yes it does
It is amazing that a stranger will despise someone for sticking up for a poor defenceless / innocent being like this when anybody with a moral compass can see this is wrong
Has to be done

When you are Vegan, and you know this horrible thing that happens to this beautiful animals , the pain you feel in your heart is unbelievable. I feel like my heart broken.

Me too.
Thais Assunção you need help
You do realise the mother forgets about her calve within a few days and enjoys being milked, it relieves them from discomfort, cows enjoy being milked, also this isn't uk, the welfare in the UK is some of the best world wide
If you really think animal welfare in the UK sets a good standard watch "Earthlings," you can find it here on TH-cam
Quite right almost all cows enjoy being milked, especially if they get fed something tasty as the same time as being milked.
Thank you for educating us Ed
and showing the worst farm in the world to say that they are all bad 🤨
Chris kross there are way worse farms to be honest this one isn’t actually too bad
Vegucation
They were probably being more gentle than usual with that calf because of the cameras.
For sure
Nah fuck yo vegan shit
@@rick1409 ok Ricky boy 👦
I cant say for entire India but certainly of the rural "traditional" India.
The cow milk is like ambrosia in the traditional Hindu culture. Hence, the cow is revered in Hindu culture. In rural India (where these Hindu cultural norms are followed) , the cow baby/ calf is just treated and celebrated as the human baby birth in that farmer's home. Whenever the cow is to be milked, the calf has first right on that milk and hence is allowed to breastfed first for few minutes. Then the calf is forcefully separated from the cow and the cow is milked only for that family. The farmer understand the injustice to the calf and that is why cow is holy in India. Our Diwali festival of lights starts with "vasubaras", worshiping cow for her gracious behaviour towards human. Hence, cow is NOT killed or eaten in traditional Hindu India and my people are Lacto-vegetarian. It has religious background via Lord Krishna as well, but i wont go there).
This is the humane way of milking cow. 1) allowing calf first on the milk. 2) being respectful and thankful to the cow for her grace to humans.
Now, it comes to modern India with mechanized dairies, increasing westernization of traditional society and introduction of meat consumption (thanks (!?) to Ibrahimic religions for invading India, and ruining/degrading Hindu traditions), help us Gods 🙏🙏🙏.
Very interesting - that sounds a lot less cruel than industrial dairy farming. But the calf is still forcefully seperated right? And while being thankful is better than just taking the milk, the cow isn't truly being gracious or "giving" her milk, it is taken from her and she has no choice. I don't wish to disrespect you beliefs and culture, but I don't think it is the cows wish to feed us humans.
Sad to hear that industrial farming is even being introduced now, that is much worse in every way...
I Understand and am very familiar with this tradition.. It still disturbs me that the calf is forced away from its mother at all.
Who?
@@holocene5451 the cow likes being milked!! It told me personally
@@t-rexkalita1379 The cow whisperer! I'm sure it loves humans touching its teats... In dairy farms, cows do willingly go the milking stations, but that's only because their udders become so uncomfortably full (same as what happens to women breastfeeding).
Expressing milk is really painful. Ive done it for my baby to keep him healthy. The poor mummy cows 😣
I know right? It's heartbreaking whenever her calf gets kidnapped and then she cries out for her baby...
While I am a vegan I can tell you it is actually enjoyable for the cows to be milked they like it quite a bit, hopefully that makes you feel better :)
@@nicocombs4990 they only like it because when their udders are full they're in so much pain, and milking them relieves the pressure
