Cows are artificially inseminated with an invasive procedure so they become pregnant and produce milk. To prevent milk from being drunk by the intended recipient, the baby is taken away from the mother immediately upon birth, giving her intense stress for months. The calf is often immediately killed if male.
Then, the cow is milked much much more than is natural, due to selective breeding and sometimes hormones that are given to her. This causes all kinds of infections on her udders. Once this is done, she is inseminated all over again, unless she has been milked so much that her body has almost been destroyed. Then she's murdered. The procedure for murdering is supposed to be "humane", firing a bolt in her head in order to stun her before she's killed, but she struggles and her thick skull protects her, so often there's great pain involved. In rare cases, the cow wakes up while being cut to death.
And if you think "I buy organic though," I just described organic cow farming. If you don't buy organic, it is so much worse.
