I've seen this one before and it is a good one to show to carnists who insist Dairy doesn't kill cows.

Yep, dairy cow lifespan and conditions was one of the first points that started me to becoming vegan.
I've found that many (past me included) don't really make the connection that, because cows only give milk when impregnated, dairy consumption necessitates that the number of cows multiply.
I guess, if you don't know the numbers (or don't think about it too much, since the numbers aren't that surprising), then you might think that one pregnancy is enough for years of milk production, or that the born cows would be bred for selling meat anyways.
This would be better imo if the it was in order from longest to shortest
There is no way wild Turkeys live 15 years. Those things fight everything
Could be how long they could live rather than actual average
Lambs only exist for a year, after that they become sheep
Chicks are also the young birds,so they are also weirdly named
