OK time to go back to the OP's topic.
Some Large dairies have been caught doing everything PETA is claiming. And the way to dispel the idea that all forms of livestock farming is evil is not but interviewing the farmer. On one side you have people claiming to be worried about the environment and animals and the other people making money off of the animals. To the person reading about it the person making money off the animals are just another greedy money making operation. And PETA is going to try to make that point too. I think the way to fight PETA is with outside people coming in to look at what's going on. Not farm experts per-say, but folks who know enough about animals to see if they are being cared for the right way. The other side of the fight is catching PETA in their lies and making darn sure that information gets out too.
As far as the comment about not understanding trophy hunting: I don't understand it either. But most states have "wonton waste" laws on the books. That means people have indeed been shooting animals for the trophy and leaving the rest in the field. I've seen that one time. My first deer season in KS, 1975, I came across a guy with a very nice mule deer buck who was in the process of cutting off the head. KS did have wonton waste laws and in talking to the guy he was shocked. I helped him dress out the deer and load it. Then followed him into town where he registered it and I took the good part home and he went his merry way with the head and rack. Then there is the on going problem in some states with professional poachers shooting trophy bucks and selling the heads or just the racks to people who have them mounted and proudly displayed in their homes. That really baffles me. How could you stand there with your buddies claiming to have shot it yourself? And enough people doing this to support profession poachers?

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
