Eating meat is cruel

The Animals Lament:

The Pig Ghetto:

"In groups of 80 to 200 animals, we pigs are kept on gratings in nearly constant darkness. We stand on split flooring with no straw on it, which often leads to damaged joints.
We are produced as if in a factory. The breeding sows are artificially inseminated in individual pens. During their 15 weeks of pregnancy, they are kept vegetating in very dimly lit tiny concrete stalls. To give birth they are tied up in special birthing pens. They can hardly move, and can merely stand up and then lie down again. So it is impossible for them to care for their young."
