[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 205009, member: 3739"] There is a fair bit of contraversy over the third freedom I found. With the dehorning part, we have to inflict pain on the animal so that in the future those horns don't cause any harm to handlers and fellow livestock when there's different difficlt situations arising. I have a personal experience with that, when I was still in elementary school, and that was when I saw a brown white-face steer with a horn span of at least a foot in length strangle another steer to death: :shock: and that steer that died also had horns, possibly a charolais. And we've been dehorning calves since. And castrating bulls that are thrown our way (none this year :) ), since they can cause a lot of distress and injury to a herd. [/QUOTE]
