Vegans don’t drink milk either. And sticking one’s hand up a cow bum is a fast way to identify and treat several health related things. Artificial insemination just makes it easier for the farmers I guess.
Like all journeys of enlightenment, initial answers only raise more and deeper concerns. Why aren’t they wearing scrubs? Why aren’t they wearing to-the-shoulder medical gloves? Why are they smiling? Why do 30% of the cows smile and groan with pleasure? Why do ranchers form close affectionate bonds with one cow, their favourite?
I have a more profound understanding now - of the addage “Ignorance is bliss”.

I’m no bovine biologist or veterinarian. I was confused as to why artificial insemination would be done with a fist and forearm up the ass.
Curse my search history, but now I know.
