The vast majority of farmed animals spend their brief lives in cramped, distressing conditions. Their close confinement and the overworking of their bodies lead to increased susceptibility to injury and disease. They are reared on an unnatural diet designed to increase productivity and many undergo various painful and traumatic procedures. Giving up meat is a step in the right direction - why not take the next step? Dairy cows and laying hens are amongst the most ill treated of all farmed animals. With their bodies viewed as no more than factories for food production, they are often overworked and neglected. When they have been worked to the point of exhaustion, they end their days in the same way as those raised solely for the meat trade - no farm animal can avoid the slaughterhouse. GO VEGAN!
