Sheep are bred to produce more wool than they would naturally, which can cause suffering, and some die as a result of shearing. Veal calves are a by-product of the milk industry.
What I'd like to ask meat eaters is whether they agree with the principle of 'treating others how you'd like to be treated' - because I don't know many who would like to be treated the way food animals are treated; yet they often say the principle is a good one, and that they live by it.
