Some context: This woman was trying to prohibit farmers from equipping their cows with bells, because she felt that they made too much noise. The population in this rural and traditional village did not like that, as they disliked people interfering with their traditions (especially since she was no swiss citizen). Some months later, she asked for naturalization, which was promptly denied by the popular vote in the village.
So she didn't object to killing cows? The problem was the bell making noise? Ok, denial justified.
I could see an argument for the noise being detrimental to the cows and her trying to pick her battles in a Swiss cattle farming town. I guess she still didn’t hit the mark.
Its a proven fact that cow bells cause hearing loss in cows. But we do a lot worse stuff to animals, so IDK. Does the reduced chance of getting mauled by a predator make the hearing damage worth it?
I mean, I would not want to be kept “safe” in those conditions, so I wouldn’t consider it worth it
what predator is this supposed to be that hunts cows in switzerland?
They have wolves, the population is actually growing.
It’s so the farmers can find lost cows
Humans
Like a Predator hunting humans armed with spears
Sometimes they hunt back but mostly on accident
