The equations used to calculate “suffering” do not seem to take into account actual harm done to animals in the process of producing these products. Rather it converts animal lives lost into lost years of an animals life.

These graphics are misleading when they refer to this as suffering, when what is meant is life-years.

I am glad, however, with the groupings by animal type. As Sawyer commented below, some people might wish to assign different moral value based on the neurobiology of the life taken. Perhaps a year of a clam’s life is not directly comparable to a year of a pig’s life.
