Guy Smith, vice president of the National Farmer's Union (NFU), boasts that they "have the
third highest animal welfare standards in the world," But if the cows at Smith's Wigboro Wick Farm could talk, they would tell you a very different story.
Horrifying video footage captured by cameras hidden around the facility in Essex, England shows workers
punching cows in the face, striking them with poles, kicking them all over their bodies, and painfully twisting their tails. Often the cows are packed so tightly in their enclosures that they can't escape. When they do have room to run from their abusers,
their hooves slip on the wet excrement covered concrete, causing them to fall helplessly. This is, unfortunately, not even the worst of it. A worker on the farm can be seen on two separate occasions
sexually abusing the cows.
Sign the petition and demand that the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) prosecute every single one of these workers to the full extent of the law!The RSPCA has confirmed that they received the footage of the sickening acts against these cows, but so far, no legal action has been taken to punish the criminals behind them. If video evidence of these crimes against animals is not enough to bring a prosecution, imagine what horrifying acts may continue to occur behind closed doors.
Call on Essex Police and tell them to investigate Smith's Farm and charge the heartless workers with animal cruelty. These animals deserve justice! Sign the petition.
