Nearly every wild animal around here dies a painful and usually violent death, a huge difference from the much more humane deaths experienced by nearly all farm animals.

Stupid comment. Forget the miserable short lives factory farm animals live as well as animal ag is the biggest reason for loss of biodiversity/loss of habitat and extinction of wildlife. H5N1 bird flu decimating wildlife right now began on a goose farm.
Wild animals live in freedom, not in the excrements of their congeners without ever seeing the sky. And by the way slaughterhouse often disrespect the law.
Would you rather be a farm animal and spend your life in a small dark box until you get slaughtered, or be a wild animal and live freely until you become prey or perish?
This guy is a grain/corn farmer, his business is supplying the majority of his crops to the animal factory farming industry and the rest to legacy auto for polluting bio fuels. Every reason to take his opinions on animal welfare and the environment with a block of salt.
Did you know the vast majority of mammals and birds live on farms & die in slaughterhouses? We can't police what wild animals do to survive, but humans eating animals is responsible for the vast majority of suffering on our planet.
It is not about their deaths, it is about their lives. They suffer their whole (short) lives (pigs, chicken, fish, calves).
And it is about land use, water use, antibiotics, deforestation, health, methane and ethics.
