Procedure
Gestation & Birth
Like humans, cows carry their young for 9 months. They possess deep emotional intelligence and form intense, lifelong maternal bonds.
The 24-Hour Severance
Within 24 to 48 hours of birth, the newborn calf is permanently removed and isolated. This allows the maternal milk to be harvested for human consumption.
"Mother cows experience profound, measurable psychological trauma. They will often bellow for days, refusing to eat, searching the barn for a calf they will never see again."
