Why is this more sad than any cow being used for food?

Herds of wild free animals rounded up and decimated. The methods are questionable. Helicopters driving the herd into pens. Foals cant keep up, trampled,separated. Others panic and are injured. Once they're penned the rest is just as bad.
Cows are bred and raised to be food. They usually arent roaming free and suddenly they're food.

Sounds to me like cows have the sadder life, the horses get a taste of freedom for a while at least.
