It's 1% in every credible source I found. I don't know where you got your garbage from. But then again, you're using Vegan Bullshit Bingo, which is sponsored by and quotes the known terrorist organization Peta. So, it's save to say that nothing you said is even remotely true.

Oh, and BTW vegan Bullshit Bingo #17 is also a complete lie! I work with Allgäuer Braunview, one of the most natural cow breeds out there. They still suffer from udder infections when not milked. In the wild this is mittigated by calves, but it can still be a problem when the calf dies.

Edit: Good god, I finally found out where the heck this 40% number comes from. This is a problem EXCLUSIVE to New Zealand! In every other part of the world, the vast majority of calves is raised till adulthood!
