Really?
Did I wander onto a Greenpeace/PETA forum?
Last week I abused some ham, some sausage, and some bacon.
And I bought 2 rolls of sausage to abuse this week.
With eggs (over easy), home fries, and biscuits if I’m lucky.
I agree with the poster who said this is just drumming up donations for that wacko organization.
Pregnant sows are put in farrowing cages the day before they deliver the pigs. The sows are very big animals and if they are not in the cages, they will step on the babies or lay on them, crippling or killing them. The cages allow the sow to stand up, lay down, give birth, and to suckle the babies. Several days after the birth, the babies are taken from the sows and taken to a nursery. If the attendants got in where the sows could get to them they would knock them down and bite them in an attempt to eat them. After the babies are transferred, the sow is then let out of the cage and is herded to the nursery and put in a pen with her piglets. The name of the game there is profit and it is definitely not the intent of the owners or managers to injure or kill any animal as that eats into their profits, thus, the animals are sheltered, fed well, and cared for with good practices in the industry. The photographer needs to work in the farrowing unit for a year or so and learn the trade.
Poor little future hot dogs...
“Ah’m’onna make yew squeal lahk Ned Beatty...”
But seriously, I kind of like the idea of gently lateraling piglets back and forth. No long bombs, unless your man can make the catch. And absolutely no spiking.
