Do you know what suffering sounds like? All day, every day factory-farmed animals are subjected to distressing sounds and sensations and live in abhorrent environment. Fast food retailers and supermarkets don't want you to know, but it's time you do. 50 billion factory-farmed animals worldwide live a life like this. Forget the slogans. Forget the catchy jingles. Forget the clever advertising. Businesses are exploiting and abusing animals on a staggering scale for the sake of profit.

The rise of the factory farm has meant that billions of animals have had to endure a life which can only be described as cruel and barbaric. A life without ever feeling the sun on their back, fresh air in their lungs, and without the freedom to fully extend their limbs, flap their wings, or exhibit their natural behaviors. 

Ammonia and other highly toxic gases and substances are released into the air due to the enormous quantities of faeces that the animals are forced to live in. Consequently, the vast majority of pigs living in these terrible conditions suffer from pneumonia and pneumonia-like lesions on their afflicted, battered lungs.

Animal farming is a serious issue which is kept under wraps by the industry. Pigs, cows, chickens and turkeys are held in abusive and cruel farms which torture their animals, strip them of their dignity and rights and take pleasure in their pain and discomfort. Despite the abhorrent cruelties behind this colossal trade, to this day, factory farms continue to dominate and control the meat industry. This is due to its large-scale production and rapid profit. These industrial operations not only are the source of intense distress for the animals exploited in these confinements, but also of what some call ‘food’, plagued with damaging chemicals, antibiotics, harmful hormones and even deadly diseases.

Chicken beaks are cut off, runts are murdered and baby piglets have their tails and teeth cut out. Pain killers? Sedatives? Nonexistent! Baby Chicks Are Ground Up Alive The. Day. They. Hatch. 

The meat we eat every day may seem harmless, but at what cost should animals have to suffer to fulfill human consumption?? 

Simple answer: NOT AT ALL!!

Breeding and consumption of animals can be done in an OPEN, honest and morally ethical manner. Not in the cruel, evil and barbaric way it is today. By handing over the industry to farmers who genuinely love animals and are watched closely by the Government to ensure it is done in the right way. Funding should be provided to ensure animals live a high quality of life and aren't discarded after their usage has been fulfilled. 

Animals have thoughts, feelings, children, parents.. they are living creatures. Just like we are. They may not look like humans, talk like us, or have the power to abuse us the way we do to them, but they deserve the same rights we are told we deserve in the United Nations document. Human domination over them is unjust and completely wrong, and its time to kill the industry the way they do to millions of innocent creatures.
