I can't believe how cruel that factory is. Slaughtering cows and other animals for food.
ReplyDeleteCrowding pigs into factory farms likely led to the emergence of the H1N1 swine flu pandemic. in slaughter houses, chickens and turkeys are shackled upside down, paralyzed by electrified water and dragged over mechanical throat-cutting blades; all while conscious. Foie gras producers shove pipes down ducks’ throats to force feed them far more than they would ever eat; this causes liver disease
ReplyDeleteI was never aware of how they slaughter animals it's awful. They are hung upside down, shocked into paralysis, having there throat cut, then drowned in hot water and this is all while they are conscious. It's just terribe. One other fact that shocked me was more than 9 billion chickens and turkeys are killed each year.
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with u Mari
ReplyDeleteIt makes me sick to my stomach what the factory industry does to these poor animals. And it makes me so guilty knowing that they do it to feed our demanding nation.
ReplyDeleteThey are terrible to animals, forcing them to eat way more than they would. Slaughtering them while still alive. they are brutal to these animals...
ReplyDeleteI dont think i culd ever live in a cage for months without the right to leave it which is what they do to the pigs and hens. I agree that they should atleast give them something before they are killed
