Raising your own animals is a good way to keep heritage animals alive and breeding. I always go find heritage breeds of pigs to raise for slaughter, to support the farmers who raise them. Plus the meat is better than the lean, no-fat pork modern breeds. We need the genetic diversity that mass produced meat is leaving in the dust. If disease struck the inbred mass produced lines of meat animals, our food supply could disappear in a twinkling. The genetics of the heritage animals could then be used to breed new animals, but if no one is raising them, we'd all be up sh!t creek without a paddle.
