[...] What a downer: Paul Shapiro, senior director of The Humane Society’s factory farming campaign, takes the poultry industry to task for going on the attack, PR wise, rather than distancing itself from the facility captured in a new animal-cruelty undercover video. God forbid they condemn the abuses. (Civil Eats) [...]

[...] NEWS: “A recent Mercy for Animals (MFA) investigation at New England’s largest egg producer revealed a list of cruelties few people would ever want to witness. Dead hens left to rot in cages with live hens. Birds, wildly flapping, kicked like footballs into manure pits. Cages upon cages of birds crammed so tight they can’t even spread their wings. The list of horrors goes on.” read more here >> [...]

What a horror story. The Industry is just appalling and has zero accountability. What a world we live in. How can we all condone this and by all I mean those who eat eggs. What will it take to make the industry accountable? Perhaps put each of the fat cats on a sheet of paper for one hour and see if they can stand it. Of course that is ludicrous because we could never make that happen but it is painful to see human beings’ cruelty all in the name of greed – both for money and for our tastebuds.

Sad, sad, sad, sad.

The industry does this time and again… provides sub-humane conditions to animals, then denies the animals even that pittance. And when they are caught they cry foul that they were exposed. I’ve even seen a few sites that claim “doctoring and manipulation” of the film!

People need to wake up to the truth that abuse is common practice throughout animal agriculture, and that none of it is necessary. We can thrive on a compassionate and healthy plant based diet.

As if confining hens to battery cages were not enough, now there’s irrefutable evidence of dead birds in the cages, workers kicking birds, etc.

I’m ashamed to say I attend a university that supports these practices with its spending — but we’re working to change it. Visit nyu.gocagefree.com to help.

Unfortunately, this farm does not represent an exception — this farm’s practices are the norm in the battery cage egg industry. Check out http://www.EggIndustry.com to learn more.

It’s shameful that in the light of stark, video evidence the egg industry won’t even admit to the cruelty that is so routine to its operations. Not supporting these kinds of abuses—by not purchasing animal products—is the easiest, most effective way to ensure that we are neither condoning these grotesque practices nor the outright lies used to absolve them.
