If you've never heard a pig scream just picture one of the most horrifying and desperate cries for help that you can possibly imagine. Watch the video and share it with everyone you know. As a warning, this video is hard to watch, but it's important to witness this cruelty and be inspired to take action to stop this insanity—especially so close to the Christmas holidays when people are talking about their ham (a.k.a. pigs' flesh) dinner!
We just released video footage from an undercover investigation at a North Carolina factory farm, Murphy Family Ventures, that supplies pigs to Smithfield Foods, the largest pig-flesh company in the world. Our investigation shows workers cutting off a piglet's tail and pulling out piglets' testicles, all without any pain relief, and dragging injured pigs by their sensitive ears, snouts, and legs as the animals scream in pain and terror.
It's all totally sick, but among the most disgusting documentation uncovered:
- Some of the pigs had "KILL" spray-painted on their backs.
- A farm supervisor admitted that he violently beat pigs, saying of one that he "cut the sh** out of his God damn nose with a f***ing gate rod."
- A worker gouged the eyes of four pigs with his fingers.
Please take action to urge Smithfield Foods to demand that Murphy Family Ventures fire the workers responsible for this cruelty and work with PETA to enact meaningful animal welfare reforms. Click here to see the shocking video and to find out how you can help these abused pigs. And if you're inspired to go vegetarian after seeing how these animals suffer, please learn more about What They Never Told You...
Thank you.

I didn't watch the video. I'll take your word for it. (Blood is not my thing...)
I did send it to friends and family, though. I hope they can understand how cruel some people are towards animals...
People are so cruel it makes me sick
It makes me hate those awful people who do this everyday, it makes me wish i could put them through the same pain and misery.
Smithfield has been nominated as the Jobs with Justice “Grinch of the Year�. You can see the other candidates & cast your vote at: http://www.jwj.org/grinch.html.

I am aware of it, though.
It's sick to see these videos....I've seen so many forms of cruelty on so many different beautiful animals that it enrages me so bad.
Really, who deserves to be called an animal?
That is the most deranged thing I have ever heard.

Posted by: elizabeth at December 14, 2007 2:37 PMI only watched little bit.I don't know how people stand that type of thing.Just because an animal bites you ,you don't bite back.Like the Iraqi war.If we didn't bite back at them things might have been a lot more peaceful.Animals disorve a better life.Those people should be arrested for animal abuse...(tear tear sob sob).
Posted by: Kiera Beyer at December 15, 2007 2:30 PMI watched this video and some of the other videos, and it really helps me to stay free of meat. Its been and amazing 3 & 1/2 months no meat! PETA really opened my eyes to the horors animals go threw. I am always looking for new videos, because afterall, this small dose of reality keeps me meat free.
