The Farm Animal’s Dilemma

There are 9.1 billion farm animals, raised on 2.1 million farms. Animal rights advocates are quick to point out not only this terrifying ratio, but that 95% of these animals are raised using “factory farming” techniques. These are methods which, according to the American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, “focus on profit and efficiency at the expense of animal welfare”. And, according to them and to most humans, that is a bad thing.
