These cramped and stressful conditions cause chickens to fight with each other so they are often declawed and debeaked. A hot blade it used to debeak chickens. These animals do not pain killers and sometimes the blade sears off some of their face. Cows raised on factory farms will not see the light of day until they are loaded on to an overcrowded truck to the slaughterhouse. Pigs raised for pork is another tragedy in the meat industry.
Pigs are actually very intelligent and sensitive animals.
As with the chickens and cows, pigs are overcrowded. They cannot walk, turn around, or even lie down. Everything from feeding to manure removal is automated so they do not receive any personal attention. The majority of pigs in these factory farms suffer from leg injuries, mange, and respiratory diseases. Millions of pigs die every year before ever making it to the slaughterhouse because of the horrible conditions.
