    Hi, Michelle, I am filled with great respect for your most thoughtful and insight response about the issues surrounding the question regarding the slaughter of living creatures to provide a food source versus the intentional good husbandry management of livestock that seems inevitably to include the necessity for culling – killing or otherwise reducing – a potentially ever growing flock or herd of animals.

    You have raised many good points worthy of much further deliberation and consideration that affect my own ideas around the handling of livestock on a farm that is intended not as a source of animal flesh as human consumption food or hides for human clothing and footwear but rather as potential resources in terms of utilising the benefits that can be accrued from cultivating managed small herds for the purpose of regenerative farming of the land itself.

    Thank you.

    Namaste. \patricia
