Il m' arrive souvent de repenser a cette SALOPE ... (desolée mais le mot n' est pas trop fort..) avec laquelle j' ai discuté assez longuement lors de ma nuit dans une ferme d' elevage de vaches laitieres exploitées pour leur lait.... ET du choc que j' avais eu lorsqu' elle m' a dit:
"JE RETIRE LE VEAU DES LA NAISSANCE ET LE PREMIER LAIT EST LE SEUL QUE LE VEAU RECEVRA DE SA MERE (AU BIBERON CECI DIT, PAS MEME AU PIE!!) CAR IL EST INVENDABLE!! ""
en lisant cet article ces paroles em reviennent et domage je n' ai pas le temps ce matin, sinon je vous raconterais une histoire.. une mere a la quelle on retire son fils a la naissance ..
voici la source de cet article ou l' on admet qu' un veau retiré a sa mere souffrira emotionellement et physiquement de ne pas avoir ete elevé par sa mere, que l' isolement provoque un retard dans le developpement de l' animal qui devient moins apte a se developper dans la société...
Bien sur, cela est evident pour ceux qui connaissent les betes et les aiment.
Je sais que mon chien qui reste avec moi tte la journee est plus intelligent que celui du voisin qui passe sa vie seul dans le jardin
MAIS BON, C' EST AGREABLE DE VOIR QUE C' EST CONFIRME PAR DES ETUDES!!
LES ELEVEURS DEVRAIENT S' INFORMER CAR DE CETTE ETUDE RESSORT AUSSI LE FAIT QUE LES VEAUX GARDES ENSEMBLE (ET PAS ISOLES DANS CES AFFREUSES BOITES DE PLASTIQUE!!) DEVELOPPENT MOINS DE MALADIES
J' AJOUTERAI POUR MA PART QUE LE STRESS EST MOINDRE DONC LE SYSTEME IMMUNITAIRE PLUS FORT.
The physical blows of cows used in big business often overshadow the mentally, socially and emotionally rich lives of cows.
A new study explains that isolating a calf from its mother can make the animal a slower learner and unable to adapt to new environments.
Holy Cow! Cows Are Awesome
Here a few cool cow facts that you might not know about cows. PETA’s The Hidden Lives of Cows explains how every cow has a distinct personality. They have friendships — get your tissue ready when you see the reunion of two blind cows, Tricia and Sweety, at a farm sanctuary.
Yet their good memories also mean that they can hold a grudge, and some even have enemies. Cows mourn death and separation; mother-baby separations are particularly difficult. They understand cause-and-effect, and they fancy a good mental challenge. Perhaps it should be “a wolf in cow’s clothing” because cows have similar social structures and dynamics to a wolf pack.
Isolated Cows Are Slower Cows
As reported in Discovery News, on most dairy farms, baby cows are immediately separated from their mothers in order to prevent the calf from getting sick (although, you have to wonder what horrible conditions the mother’s in if her baby runs the risk of getting sicker being with her?). After two months, most calves will be reintegrated in the herd.
Yet, new research suggests that this immediate separation showed that “isolated calves were much slower to learn new things and had a harder time adapting to changes in their environment.”
You would think that a slower cow probably sounds like cow bells to factory farmers’ ears because a slower cow is an even easier to exploit cow. Not exactly.
Slow Cows Slow Down Operations
A slow cow tends to slow down operations on the farm. As iScience Times explains, when a red bin was placed in their pens, scientists observed the reactions of two groups — social cows and isolated cows. While both types of cows were interested in the red object, the novelty factor would eventually fade for more socialized cows. Yet, isolated cows were constantly stimulated by the object. One of the study’s researchers explained, “‘This could make it more difficult for a farm animal to be trained or to do something as simple as walk down a path and not be overwhelmed by a bright light or a new noise.’”
The researchers concluded that keeping cows in smaller groups would be more beneficial than isolation. A group of two or three cows is socially stimulating, and the threat of disease spreading is significantly reduced.
Sadly, farm animals, like cows, seldom get to express their awesomeness. The whole system is designed to strip them of their individuality and their spirit — they are nothing more than their body parts.
Try telling cows that, though; give a cow a chance and it will escape, even if it has to jump in an icy pool to reach freedom.
When a livestock farmer admits that killing animals for their meat is wrong, then we need to listen up. The real reason that cows are getting slower is because around 95 percent of Americans accept that it’s okay to eat and drink them.
