I don¡¯t know, 200 a year killed sounds like a reasonable estimate to me. The number living in inhumane conditions to provide cheese, milk, eggs, etc., is surely higher.

200 a year actually sounds very low to me.? Most people seem to eat eggs, cheese, and a variety of dead animals (piggies, cows, birdies, fishies), daily.? If the food doesn¡¯t contain animal secretions or carcasses, most people don¡¯t consider it a meal.? I think it has to be way more. This is really good information to know, thanks Shelley. Two hundred animals a year. Visualizing that could help bring the impact home for some people. I wonder if they have an estimate for how that breaks down by species on average??
I can imagine an effective commercial in which someone Is surrounded by all these animals, and saying how all their lives have been saved since they went vegan a year ago.
Do you have the exact URL where this info can be found at ?

Youth ¡°¡±?are held across the country by government agencies and other entities. These events encourage children to torture/kill animals for ¡®fun,¡¯ and enable them to do so. Please help oppose them by complaining to local officials about them, and by letting others know how cruel they are. If you¡¯d like information to hand out at such events, contact us at: Info@....
