Cancel the Pig Racing at the Festival of Beer, Stowe

Racing animals is cruel and exploitative. The festival plan to race pigs at their event on Saturday 17th August when we can expect temperatures to be high. Racing is not natural behaviour for pigs and noisy crowds of people will be frightening for them. A race is not a suitable environment for the pigs, does not allow them to exhibit normal behaviour patterns and does not protect them from pain and suffering.

The festival has lots of things happening and dropping the pig race and replacing it with something with willing participants would take nothing away from it.

Sign now to appeal to Blackpit Brewery to take the compassionate step and not force pigs to race at their event.
