There are over a hundred thousand sheep farms in the US alone. That's 117 in 6 countries, what percentage of farms had bad practices and how were the ones that were audited chosen? Given that this is PETA, I would not assume good faith

For a back of the envelope calculation we consider the uncertainty principle Δx*Δp >= ℏ/2 Δp = Δ(m v) >= ℏ/(2 Δx) m = 9.1 * 10 ^ -31 kg (mass of electron) x ~= 1 * 10^-15 m (radius of proton) ℏ = 6.6 * 10 ^ -34 kg m^2 /
