Which dairy industry issues bother you? Sperm collection via electro-ejaculation. Artificial insemination (wearing a shoulder-length glove, the farmer inserts an arm in the anus to grab the cervix). Mastitis, a painful and common udder condition. Living indoors on concrete floors, possibly tethered in tie stalls. High incidence of lameness. Separation of calf and mom shortly after birth, calf then isolated. With no pain control: Hot iron disbudding (preventing horn growth); castration; extra teats cut off with scissors. Environmental: water use, ammonia emissions.
