What will happen to all the cows?

It is my understanding that the vast majority of meat that is labelled as Halal is slaughtered using the stunning method required by UK law and that this is acceptable by the majority of British Muslims as both humane and Halal.

Shush, don't tell the rabble as they will burn or stone something.........

for all the vegans out there.

If we dont have a need for the cows or meat then farmers wont breed them and the fields would be empty. without farmers supporting the animals they would not survive naturally for any great period, after a few years they would decline until barely any cattle left

The Welsh will invade due to the lack of 4 legged blonde women back home.......

Majority of the population being vegan is just not going to happen any time soon. We have eaten meat for millennia and that doesn't change in a generation.
I do think it will increase in popularity as the world faces more and more challenges in feeding the humans that live on it though. The population of the world is always going to be increasing. Insects for protein is a current avenue of thought as a way to reduce meat consumption.

insects are animals also.

Never said they weren't. Eating them gives something like 8 times more protein yield than beef per area of land farmed.
Not that I'd give up a steak for a cockroach burger in a hurry......

The thing is the way how animals are farmed and killed as well as the amount of chemicals and steroids pumped in to them, where do you think your "moobs" come from and the thoughts of cushions and net curtains.

With all the vegan hoo ha going on at the moment, as a dedicated meatarian, I was wondering if we all became vegans, what would happen to all the cows, sheep, pigs etc? It'll be quite sad to see. All the empty fields, unless of course they have artificial animals, like they have artificial meat. Who would keep animals, when they cost a fortune and have no use?

Could put them up as a beauty pagent, like the Saudis did with their Camels, mind you the Welsh would have a Monopoly on the Sheep front, oh don't forget the botox

Welsh sheep are more attractive then Northampton lasses, just saying......
