You’re not wrong but there isn’t a domesticated animal or plant that we haven’t selectively breed so the traits we want to see more of aren’t expressed more prominately.
Your position and lack of answering the question implies to my naive mind that you do advocate for killing all the sheep that have been bred to need shearing. Do you not? I really can’t tell lol your stance seems to imply that would be where you land, but I would also call that pretty fucking ghoulish if that’s the case.
Since we set the world up this way, now we have a responsibility to treat the animals kindly. That’s my stance. Supply and demand is technically irrelevant. Obviously I’m gonna have an issue with factory industrialized wool though… Mistreating animals, especially species we specifically messed with through selective breeding is absolutely inexcusable. And the PETA route of annihilating all the selectively bred animals is as abhorrent as factory farming to me.
Did they really compare wool with leather as equally cruel to animals?
Perty shure sheep weren’t meant to be shaved like that and the constant shaving has caused them to evolve to require it.
It depends on the variety. Some sheep do need to be sheared, but others shed naturally and their wool can simply be combed out.

so we should exterminate all sheep who have over active wool growth right?
Strawman. You can reduce the herd by simply not breeding a new one. No animal has to be harmed
What do you think?

I think you’re spending too much time on these forums if this is what goes through your head in response to my comment.
I was simply sharing a fact many people might not know about the shearing of sheep.
