Animal life on the farm. factories of Death

In modern intensive methods used farm animal breeding, in which they are treated as machines for the production of eggs, milk and meat.

Calves weaned from the mother at birth. They are placed in a small cage, and much of cow's milk, which was intended for the calf, is the people. Separation from the mother is a huge stress for the newborn calf and the cow-mother. Cramped, stuffy and loneliness hurt psyche of the calf, and he does not develop normal behavior - he licks the corral wall or their own urine.

Egg chickens are in small cages so that each bird has an area the size of a little less than one album sheet. That is, they can not even straighten the wings! As a result, the birds develop abnormal behavior: they pull out their own feathers and peck to death the weaker birds.

To reduce the number of such cases, cut the chicken part of the beak, which is very painful for them.

In broiler chickens bone growth has not kept pace with the growth of muscles, and legs bent under the weight of the body. This was the result of selective breeding. 4/5 chickens have broken bones or other bone defects. Chickens be hurt and they are sitting on crooked legs. They can not get to food and water.

Pigs - is highly evolved animals, their intelligence is close to the dog's intelligence. Pig - a real concentration camp for the poor animals. Pigs to gain weight faster, they are castrated, without anesthesia.

Very often the pigs are kept on bare cement or on a perforated floor. Abroad in the commercial breeding of pigs 20% of pigs are killed within the first 8 months of life. If not for the regular administration of antibiotics, the mortality rate would be even higher. Animals constantly give stimulants and hormones, and because of this they are just 5 months to gain weight 100 kg!

For most of the livestock deaths - the only deliverance from suffering. Slaughterhouses reminiscent of the paintings of hell, where the animals are killed with little or no stunning, simply cutting the throat.

In the event that the flesh of animals is to go for export, they were taken to a slaughterhouse in another country. Such transport is very painful for the animals, as beaten up during loading and during transport, they often do not provide food, water, rest for a few days. Can you survive the long trip in the crowded summer train, when for a few days, you do not give to sit down, you can not eat, drink and go to the bathroom? Not surprisingly, some of the animals die during such transport.

For fish, they have a complex nervous system and in pain about the same as a man. Professor Frank Hurd, a microbiologist at the University of Melbourne, for 10 years has studied the sensitivity of the fish to the pain, said: "The argument is that fish do not feel pain, it is very convenient." Therefore, vegetarians refuse consumption not only meat, but also fish. Veganism called veganism, the abandonment of all animal products, which is always associated with the operation of the animals.

How to get the goose liver. Liver pate is very expensive. But the highest price paid for his animals.

14 million ducks and geese in France, Poland, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, the United States should suffer for the sake of a whim gourmets around the world. More than anything in the world makes this product France - 10,000 tons of fatty goose and duck liver. In Germany, Austria and Switzerland, the liver production is prohibited. However, these countries are the largest importers of the product, and the current trade agreements to ban the import of the liver until it is impossible.

Liver - is the largest organ in the body metabolism of warm-blooded. It can process large amounts of sugar, fat and protein. With it neutralized and eliminated many toxins in the body. If the authority reaches the limits of its capacity, the fat begins to accumulate in the liver cells, and it is growing. This property is used for liver and duck liver production of industrially.

Three times a day, each duck forcibly stuffed. For this work is included in the corral, grabs a duck, which is frantically trying to escape. He pulls her to the floor, pulling her head up and stretch the neck. Then strongly embrace her beak to force the bird's beak open and pushes the metal tube in the throat. The tube is inserted deep into the stomach. Then air Pumpe several strong pushes forcefully pushes a bird or 7.6 pounds of corn porridge, which is ten times the normal amount of food. This procedure often leads to rupture of the stomach and goiter. Workers often do not look properly positioned bird feeding. One of the workers shows that animals appear tumors caused by wounds from the tubes. One of the ducks neck was so hurt and is dotted with worms that when she saw the water poured out.

Veterinarians report that after a short time of the feeding due to the damage of the pharynx and esophagus birds no longer able to feed themselves. In addition, there is a high risk of infection, since the same tube is used for a variety of animals without prior disinfection. Food often gets into the lungs, causing pneumonia. Spread of infection, which is treated with antibiotics and other drugs, which eventually come to us.

A huge number of animals die before they reach the slaughterhouse. One of the workers told reporters that those employees who die in less than 50 "of" birds, receive the award.

Other "ways" treatment of workers with birds also cause shudder: workers routinely experience them by the neck. While ducks are wheezing and release from fear feces and urine. And the multitude of ducks bleeding wings and sides, wounded beaks and legs. Experts say that "birds look sick. Their eyes are indifferent, they're not - feathers neuhozheny. This can happen only when the animals are suffering. Being very weak, wounded or sick, many ducks are not moving or able to move without the aid of wings. "

Since only the liver drakes used for roast, female chicks literally thrown in the trash: after sorting chicks by sex workers fill the tank waste boiled water and pushed chicks in nylon bag. Bag tied and thrown into the tank. If the bag pops up, press down its huge stone. Those chicks that manage to swim out through the hole in the bag, killed by a blow on the wall of the tank.

Feeding lasts 4 weeks and at the end of this period, poultry liver weighs about 1.3 - 1.5 pounds, which is in the 6 to 12 times more than normal duck liver (30 - 60 grams). It is a great burden to other organs. Ducks are terminally ill.

It is this degraded, full of antibiotics, toxins, fat and cholesterol products are sold as "fresh duck liver."

The famous scientist and Nobel laureate, one of the founders of the science of animal behavior Konrad Lorenz called this "production", "a disgrace to the whole of Europe."
