It’s a question not often contemplated: if they weren’t raised for milk or meat, how long would cows live naturally?
It’s not contemplated often because it’s inherently flawed. Cows are not naturally occurring. They are a prime example of a GMO. There is no “natural cow”. They were designed by humans to meet human needs.
This article is akin to an article asking, “How long could a pick up truck last if we just didn’t drive it?”
Humans dont need cow meat at all, we can get our protein from beans, lentils, greens, seeds, grains. There’s no need to kill someone who wants to live for that purpose.

its bad comparison because we do not own cows as they’re their own beings.
We don’t need coal power either, but here we are, doesn’t change the fact that cows were designed by us for our needs. I do agree that cattle is archaic and should be phased out as soon as possible.
we do not own cows
I assure you private citizens own cattle, regardless of your disagreement.

We don’t own plants either but here we are.
Plants are not the same because they’re not conscious. Bovines on the other hand are intelligent and have feelings.

Just because that is the status quo does not mean it is moral. You cannot own another being.
