How to use "Slaughter" in context?
There is no one answer as to why we slaughter animals. It could be that we need to eat them or that they provide us with vital nutrients or that they are simply interesting creatures to look at. But whatever the reason, slaughtering animals is an important part of our world. Here we will explore the pros and cons of slaughtering animals and how it can be done safely and ethically.
Animal rights advocates argue that slaughtering animals is cruel and unnecessary. They argue that we can produce the same amount of meat without hurting or killing animals by raising them on a farm.
