The cow is already extinct in the wild. It's not an animal that gets along well outside of human care. An argument could be made that the kindest thing to do is let the species, twisted and distorted by humanity into a ghoulish parody of a once-mighty beast, regain its dignity in extinction. I have a feeling though that however easy faux-beef gets, there will always be people who won't eat it- just look at the "pink slime" controversy, or the anti-GMO movement.
