To be fair, birth is pretty traumatizing, but this guy didn't cause it!

A good rancher is usually the indirect cause of their cows giving birth because they determine when mating occurs.

It wasn't sheer coincidence that so many cows had calves in the same 48-hour period. Dude planned it that way by mating (or artificially inseminating) all of his heifers at the same time.

Maybe you should look into a bit of what ranchers actually do...

I've worked on ranches and farms, and I do understand the arguments against meat farming etc. but a rancher helping cows give birth is not the issue
