sadly true, but sadly I think people draw the line somewhere because dogs have human-like personalities. although I’m sure people who spend a lot of time with chickens or cows claim the same thing about them.
I’ve had chickens for many years, and can confirm this. They have vastly different personalities - some are curious and affectionate, some are shy and much more private. Some are shockingly smart, some are dumb as shit.
Some, you form a bond with. They become pets, friends even. I’m upset for days when they pass. Others - well, at least I’ve given them a good life; I have no issue eating them.
The lines are completely arbitrary. It’s not fair - it’s human nature
