A truck loaded with cows bound for slaughter was traveling
down icy roads in Canada to a Tyson plant in Washington state when it
slipped off the road and slid down an embankment. The vehicle narrowly
missed falling into a freezing river. No injuries were reported but all the
cows, though they survived this terrifying ordeal, will be slaughtered.

Stories like this are all too common for animals raised and killed
for food. In fact, weâve covered dozens of vehicular accidents that have left
farmed animals injured or dead. In June, a
truck carrying 5,000 chickens to a slaughterhouse in Washington state
overturned, killing hundreds of birds. And back in 2017, there were so many
of these kinds of accidents, we compiled them in a blog post. These accidents
involved cows
caught in a burning trailer, hens driven into a highway pillar, and pigs
trapped under electrical wire.

The truth is that animals face dangerous and appalling
conditions when they are transported from factory farms to slaughterhouses. Crowded
together, they go for hours without food or water and are exposed to all sorts
of weather conditions.

Take a look:
We all have the power to say no to this cruelty by choosing
to avoid animal products in favor of humane and healthy plant-based foods.
Thankfully, the
vegan movement has never been stronger and itâs easier than ever to make
the switch.
