Cows don't have a concept of property.
Cows have to be tricked into letting their milk down. They won't let you steal it otherwise.
Do you have a source for that or are you just guessing because it's a cow?
I don't need to guess. Because it's a cow.
But you do guess, because it's a cow. You don't know you aren't a cow (I guess?).
60 years ago they thought that babies did not feel pain. I suppose we can always rely on our intuition to tell us what's true or not.
Some people still think animals don't feel pain, or have feelings at all. Anybody who has spent time with one of them will know that's bs.
Why couldn't cows have a concept similar to what we consider property? Just because they are "inferior" to you.
Cows are not sapient. This isn't 60 years ago
