It doesn’t bother you if cows go extinct but it bothers you if humans kill cows for food? I don’t understand. Going extinct is worse than individuals periodically dying. Going extinct means the ALL die.
The cows that already exist are the only cows I wish to spare suffering. They will die anyway; no one is planning to make any cows immortal. If they simply don’t have calves, the cow species will go extinct without doing any harm to any cows that already exist.

I disagree on multiple levels.
-Dying is worse than living no matter how bad of a place you live in
-cows don’t think like humans. the biggest factor in their happiness is food. cows might be quite happy in farms, or at the very least I think their life is not a permanent state of torture.

Thou know’st ’tis common; all that live must die, passing through nature to eternity. This way, though, they don’t leave descendents to toil in cages.
As I said before, the worst part of a factory farm cow’s existence isn’t death, but life.

“Dying is worse than living no matter how bad of a place you live in”
Would you rather die and disappear, or die and burn in hell? Or burn in hell while alive? Never say never.
“cows don’t think like humans”
Yes. They don’t anticipate death. They don’t stay up all night fearing it. It comes as one sharp blow, and then oblivion.
