And it gives them bird flu.
Yum.
Reminds me of how animal feed suppliers take expired human food, grind it up into a pulp with the plastic packaging not removed, then sell the mush to factory farms, and we get to wonder why meats contain so many microplastics
Despite mad cow disease they still did not learn anything it seems, they just don’t care about the consequences of their disgusting practices. Filthy, greedy bastards!

In contrast to Britain and Europe, American farmers are still allowed to feed cattle and other farm animals ground-up waste from other animals including birds.
Sorry US, you’re on your own there.
“In the UK and EU, feeding cows proteins from other animals has been tightly regulated since the outbreak of BSE – or ‘mad cow disease’ – 30 years ago.”
- years. ago.
We also made cows cannibals and we got mad cows disease. I truly recommend this podcast about mad cow disease:

The Covid-19 pandemic has been one of the weirdest things any of us has lived through. But there was another sickness that once stalked the nation and turned things very strange for a while. In the 1990s Britain was hit by an epidemic of a fatal neurological disease in cows that also killed 178 humans. Science was split between government assurances of safety and dissidents warning of disaster. Trust in officials took a battering. Facts became blurred. And the grisly truth about our global industrialised meat industry was revealed. 30 years on, scientists and activists are still searching for answers to two big questions - where did mad cow disease originally come from and how did humans get infected? This crazy tale of cannibal cows, competing origin theories, and scientific dead ends lives on as the madness continues to spread.
