As an animal activist/advocate and creator of Raise Ur Paw – I have read many articles and stories of animal cruelty, abuse and slaughter – such barbaric and inhumane acts that are crimes against nature.
This time I came across a sickening story
that CNN broke, about a PILGRIM’S PRIDE CHICKEN SUPPLIER who was caught – thanks to hidden
camera, laughing as he buried animals alive. The shocking and disturbing video
was taken by an undercover investigator with Compassion Over Killing and shows
the disturbing footage of workers dumping sick chickens by the bucketloads into
a pit where they were left to die slowly.
According to the story, the investigator
had asked if the defenceless birds should be killed before dumping them into
the pit, and this is how the worker responded to the question;
“No, we’re going to
drop them in the pit just like they are. You dump them in there and then Mother
Nature takes care of the rest. You go in there in the summertime, and it smells
real nice over there. If you look down in there, it’s like a gravy that’s
simmering and squirming.”
Apparently, Tim Prince, the owner of the
factory farm had admitted to CNN, stating that the birds were in fact buried
alive at his facility – but indicated as well that he didn’t believe it was
that big of deal.
This report was truly an eye opener of the
inhumanity and cruelty that takes place in some of these factory farms, and the
truth that is being hidden away, so that many people don’t even realize that
such cruelty exists. CNN also took on the controversial “AG-GAG BILLS” that
threaten to prohibit these undercover investigations, permitting animal abuse
and other serious crimes to remain hidden and go unnoticed from the public –
and that is a crime itself in many eyes.
You see my dear readers, this is why it is
so important to expose and reveal the truth – bringing to light the inhumanity
and barbaric actions that are taking place even in our own country – and with
these “AG-GAG BILLS” they are merely protecting these actions of abuse –
protecting the animal abusers/offenders from criminal liability, and it is up
to us as a world, as humankind to unite and expose and seek justice for the
innocent lives that are not only suffering and dying, but also for those
innocent beings who have lost their lives as well.
The only way that such cruelty and abuse
can be stopped is by spreading the word and sharing the evidence, to reach out
to as many people as possible and get them to raise their paws to fight for
this abuse to end once and for all ---- We are the voices of the voiceless –
and if we remain silent, the cost of this silence will be the innocent lives of
animals around the world.
Thank You

Extreme Animal Abuse .. Prosecution is a Must .
ReplyDeleteI agree. Prosecution and punishment should be the same as for abusing humans - and for the owners and the abusers equally. More of us need to educate others and protest.
