I was just reading an e-mail from Cattle Network News called "Quick Facts To Impress Your Friends At The Coffee Shop."
In it was this fact: 'Inventory' of Cattle and Calves in the US = 104,300,000"
The current US population (of humans) is about 301 million.
That's 1 cow for every 3 of us.
Does your family of 3 have a cow in the backyard?
No.
Most of those cattle are on feed lots waiting to be eaten.
By the way, the us Hog and Pig population in the US is 67,661,000. That's 4.5 people for each pig/hog.
Here's a photo of a Hog Factory Farm in North Carolina after a flood. Tens (maybe hundreds) of thousands of pigs/hogs died in the flood. River-soaked bacon just doesn't cut it:
