PETA calls climate change plan that culls 200,000 cows 'ridiculous': 'Government kill squads' won't help

PETA told Fox News Digital that Ireland's plan to kill 200,000 cows to help fight climate change is 'ridiculous' and hiring 'government kill squads' won't solve the problem.

Irish politician Peadar Tóibín alerted Parliament to figures in the Farming Independent showing 200,000 cattle could be culled by 2025, citing "an incredible threat to the farming sector."

In a statement provided to Fox News Digital, a PETA spokesperson said how the dairy industry already"routinely slaughters ‘spent’ cows on a massive scale to boost profits."
