Each time Mercy For Animals sends someone undercover into a
factory farm, slaughterhouse, or hatchery, the investigator uncovers sadistic animal cruelty that’s truly
reminiscent of a horror novel.
The following investigations left us speechless and disturbed.
1. Hy-Line Hatchery
Hatching more than 300,000 chicks each day, Hy-Line is the
largest hatchery of egg-laying breed chicks in the world. Day-old chicks are
thrown, dropped, and mutilated without painkillers. The males, who will never
lay eggs, are dumped into a giant macerator to be ground up alive.
2. Conklin Dairy Farms
The undercover footage exposes some of the most sickening
animal abuse we’ve ever seen. Cows and newborn calves are beaten in the face
with metal pipes, repeatedly stabbed with pitchforks, kicked, thrown, and
punched by a worker who seems to enjoy torturing animals. Their tails are even
broken.
3. Tyson Pork Group
At this Walmart pork supplier, the investigator documented
pregnant pigs locked in filthy gestation crates unable to turn around or lie
down comfortably for nearly their entire lives. Workers sadistically kicked,
hit, body slammed, and otherwise tortured pigs. One worker even threw a bowling
ball at a pig’s head.
4. Tyson Foods
The investigator documented owners of a Tyson contract farm
engaging in gruesome animal abuse, including beating and stabbing chickens to
death using a spiked club, standing on the birds’ heads and pulling their wings
or bodies to break their necks, and throwing live birds into buckets to suffer
and slowly die.
5. Lilydale (Sofina
Foods)
Undercover footage obtained by MFA provides a shocking look
behind the scenes at a Lilydale slaughterhouse in Canada. The disturbing
hidden-camera footage shows turkeys painfully shackled upside down, shocked
with electricity, cut open, and even scalded in vats of hot water—all while still
alive and able to feel pain.
Think factory farms are scary? Imagine how the animals must
feel.
Thankfully, you can help fight the cruel meat industry by switching
to a compassionate vegan diet.
