It’s an understandable answer that kind of misses the point. Cows are an incredible strain on the environment because of how fucking many of them humans breed in order to abuse and murder. But deleting cows would just prompt people to breed and abuse a different animal so it wouldn’t help that much
What do you think we’d use? Just out of curiosity. Horse? Deer? We have the infrastructure and such for horses. I don’t know why we haven’t domesticated deer for meat production but I’d imagine they’re next. Horses have much less utility in the modern world so I can definitely see them being the go-to.
I feel like a reasonable but controversial answer to this is cows
But why cows?

More farming of pigs and goats probably.
Bison, most likely.
Yeah I honestly think they’d just reinvent the cow.
I don’t kniw why but for some reason the phrase reinvent the cow is so funny to me.
Methane and total acreage needed per cow
But why male cows?
