TAGGED: HBO documentary pigs woof Death On A Factory Farm

Death On A Factory Farm follows an undercover investigator named "Pete" onto an Ohio factory farm where pigs are treated in ways you will not believe! The video footage and court case which followed are heartbreaking, but motivating for anyone who cares about being kind to animals.

I don't really watch TV (sue me, I prefer reading), but it seems like HBO really has its act together! The award-winning network which brought you the documentary, I Am An Animal once again has a very important film for you.

Please make sure you watch this movie. Check the schedule here. This film starts airing tonight (March 16) and goes through the rest of the month!

This little piggy doesn't want to be your bacon.

This reminds me of the Woof campaign from last summer. If you wouldn't eat a dog, why eat a pig?

Pigs are friends, not food,

I'm in the UK and don't have HBO but I don't want to watch it, and I don't need to watch it to be motivated to help animals!

I have it on now. I cannot watch this, but I am listening. I peaked a look at the pig hanging and kicking. He said it kicks for 4-5 minutes (I hope he didn't say 45 min.) and that the workers laughed. Gruesome sight, I am so sad!
Thank God for people like this man, that have the fortitude to witness and document this for court.

I just watched a portion of it last night and I could not believe the way they treated thoes pigs. I started crying when they showed the part about how they kill the runt pigs. I am finally glad that someone can bring to light the horrors that truley go on on factory farms. When I saw the court hearing, I couldn't believe some of the reasons they gave for the treatment of the animals. I would have strangled that guy on the stand if I would have been in the court room. I swear.
