Totally, tons of field animals die in the harvesting of wheat/soybeans/etc., but the same goes for the harvesting of what cattle eat, and there's way more of that (something like 80 percent of all crops grown in america are to feed animals on factory farms). By eating factory farmed meat, I'm not only supporting that, but also the deaths of WAY more field animals than those killed in harvesting people-food. Also, a mouse that gets eaten up in a thresher didn't spend it's whole life in a dark box getting pissed on by other mice. Like I said, killing your own cows for beef is far better than buying supermarket beef because it eliminates the most horrible aspects (unless you torture your own cows anyways for some reason, in which case I guess you would just suck).

As far as taking over habitat space for growing things, if factory farming wasn't in place, that 80% could be freed up for all sorts of animals/people to live on or to grow more food for people.
