If you had to put a timeline on the end of factory farming, or at least a huge reduction of it like a 90% cut in the US, when do you think that will happen?

Many animal activists focus on farm animals because there are so many of them (>60 billion) compared to other animals, and often those on farms suffer more. But some have argued that there are far fewer farm animals than one group: wild animals, where estimates go up to trillions, quadrillions, and beyond if we include rodents, fish, insects, etc.

What do you think about the issue of wild animal suffering? Especially in terms of whether young activists should focus on helping farm or wild animals.
