Instead of breeding more animals, we should let the ones alive now live out their natural lifespans and stop breeding them. But as long as people keep buying animal products, breeders will keep breeding the animals.

Definitely not. Our natural ecosystems and wildlife would not handle that. They’re invasive to most of the world and would breed invasively. The planet doesn’t need that problem anymore than it currently has.

If you were to keep them on farms, I assume you’ll be paying for all the feed, medicine, workers of the agriculture industry, etc. Or would you just leave the cows to starve or get sick and die, while millions of people become unemployed frommfarmhands to students flipping burgers at McDonald’s?
