In France, over 87% of ducks and geese used to produce foie gras are trapped in cages on huge factory farms, and force fed twice a day. Far from the industry's reassuring propaganda, the footage shot by www.stopgavage.com documents the most insane treatment of sentient animals: regular culling of female ducklings at birth, contention of millions of birds in individual battery cages, pneumatic force feeding resulting in appalling health conditions and increased mortality rates.
