Lots of things aren't pleasant when it comes to the mass production of animals - for food or research.

When I was in college in Anatomy & Physiology we had to disect fetal pigs...I alway liked pigs (think they are funny interesting animals)...anyway I naively asked the teacher about the fetal pigs in the crate she was about to hand out... I wondered how many "liters" of pigs this was...not knowing how many they give birth to...
then I asked
" So, did they give the Pregnant Mother a C-section to get these fetal pigs for research?" My professors eyes got WIDE, and her expression was worried and she said NO - no C-section...(she might have thought I was a peta nut) LOL....

and then I realized they killed the mother and just slit her open for the fetal pigs...I felt bad but got over it....

It's just the way things are, and we had to learn hands on disecting the pig for our future degrees in health care etc...
