When did you last see a wild cow or chicken?

Wild aurochs were common in Europe and Asia well before mankind introduced mass farming. The cold Pliocene climate caused an extension of open grassland, which supported the evolution of large grazers.
Our cattle of today are smaller creatures but they have descended from the aurochs.
Not only that, but there were many more animals roaming the planet back then than there are now. Some emitted small farts and others big farts. And we won’t even talk about the dinosaurs!
It beggars belief that anyone can truly think that cattle farting can have anywhere near the impact that industry belches out each day. It’s a diversion, frankly. A complete manipulation to try to force people away from meat eating and it should be resisted by all thinking people.
