1. Factory Farming is Inhumane

2. What is it?
Factory Farming involves inhumane practices which are extremely cruel and should never be done to any living creature. These farming systems maximize their profits by torturing these animals and showing no pity. The practices are done yearly on tons of animals including pigs, chickens, cows and many more farm animals. The animals are shoved in such confined spaces that they can barely move or breathe while they are exposed to diseases.

3. Why it affects me?
This is a wrong-doing in my opinion and I feel like it should be illegal to do. Animals should not be treated like this just because a farmer wants their meat. The truth is that there is no such thing as a “happy” factory farm animal- even the supposedly “ethically treated” animals. I want to fix this because no animal should ever have to go through something like this especially without any pain meds to ooze the pain away. This needs to stop before the worse comes.
