This petiton is to stop the use of battery farms in order to produce bacon and other pig items these animal are beautiful and graceful they do not deserve the horrors that they indure everyday... we have the power to stop this inhumane treatment of pigs please give them a voice be there light at the end of what may seem to be a long tunnel!
In over 2,000 factory farms throughout Australia the worth of a female pig is determined by how many piglets she can produce each litter. She is allowed to 'live' for as long as her body can physically endure the demands of being kept continually pregnant and confined, standing with minimal movement on a hard floor.Females pigs in factory farms are treated as breeding machines. They endure a cycle of suffering and deprivation.
Their behavioural, mental and emotional needs are irrelevant. Exercise is not allowed.
Space means money. They exist to create profit.
In Australia, the majority of the 300,000 female breeding pigs (sows) are kept inside sheds continually pregnant and confined. It is these animals that produce the piglets destined to become bacon, ham and pork products. Most sows are confined for at least some of their 16 week pregnancy in tiny metal individual stalls, (and one third for the entire pregnancy!) so small they are unable to turn around. At best they can take a small step forward. They have no bedding. They are forced to stand or lie on hard floors.
A day eventually comes when for the first time in her life she experiences sun on her back and fresh air to breathe. What she doesn't know as she is loaded on that truck, so lame, ill or 'unproductive' that she is no longer capable of creating profit, is that it is also to be the last day of her life...
PLEASE HELP THEM THEY NEED US MORE THAN EVER WE ARE THERE ONLY CHANCE!
