I believe that animal rights supporters do not understand the truebrelationship between animals and humans. All of the common farm animals we see today developed from wild animals, but they changed in ways to better suit living with humans. One example of this how dogs developed from wolves more than 15000 years ago. Some dogs developed to help us hunt better. Other dogs, like sheepdogs, help us take care of other animals. These farm animals are no longer able to survive in the wild. If we released them into the wild, most of them would die. They need our protection from bad weather and from wild animals that would kill and eat them.
