    Bears should just enslave some other animals to produce milk for them. Simple.

    because the dairy industry is tax subsidized & pays for propaganda commercials to make people think you need cow’s milk as an adult

      I don’t know a single person who consumes milk because they think they require it. They just like the taste of dairy products.

      The subsidization is an issue imo, but I don’t think people are as brainwashed regarding milk as you assume.

    Supermarkets aren’t selling human milk, though. It’s milk from an entirely different animal.

    I’m not a big fan of animal agriculture, but I don’t get why milk is singled out, as if we don’t consume the dead bodies of animals, bodies that weren’t “meant for” anything other than sustaining itself.

    And we’ve been doing it for thousands of years, selectively breeding and domesticating cows for the purpose. Humans drinking cow’s milk is more natural than carrots being orange.

      I think that meat and dairy are both unethical, but other animals do eat meat. AFAIK, humans are the only animal that drinks milk outside of their species. (Or drinks milk as an adult, for that matter!)
