This cartoon is a reference to the fact that all the animals we eat are killed within a fraction of their natural lifespan. Be they free-range, organic, grass-fed or factory farmed, the animals we kill for foods we don't even need are primarily killed as babies. With this fact in mind, can we really claim with any kind of honesty that animals slaughtered so young had a good and worthwhile life? When the most happy of human children are tragically killed, do we feel okay with it because they led a full and happy life? Do we take pleasure in the fact that a dead child lived their life well? Or do we instead mourn the fact that they were taken far too soon?
