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.
