Farmers are in contact with animals even more often than hunter gatherers. But have you ever seen the whole "asking for forgiveness" thing in an agricultural society? (not rhetorical)
No, though I've seen small-scale family farms ensure that their stock live pleasantly and are slaughtered humanely, and I myself have tried to make sure food animals I've killed died quickly and painlessly.
Mileage will vary. There are a lot of true horror stories about farming and ranching, and they're not all from industrial feedlots.
