See philosophical cow. There was a much larger philosophy article I read about this but I can’t seem to find it. https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2010/03/the-philosophical-cow.html https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2010/03/th... If you give a cow a choice between being a gazelle and getting eating by a lion or a cow and being fed and taken care of but eventually being killed, which would they choose? If you gave a cow a choice between the elimination or decimation of its entire species (cows have been altered to be not fit for nature) which would they choose? It’s not as cut and dry as you would think. There are definitely people who would pick to eliminate the entire human race. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voluntary_Human_Extinction_Movement https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voluntary_Human_Extinction_M... , so maybe we would have voluntary cattle extinction movements as well. A belief that birth/procreation is a negative is known as antinatalism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antinatalism https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antinatalism
