THE HORROR OF CHINAS FUR TRADE COMES IN SECOND PLACE TO THE HORRORS OF OUR US SLAUGHTERHOUSES.
Stephanie Welch: The Humane Farming Association investigated allegations by workers at a slaughterhouse in Wallula, Washington, run by IBP, the world's largest meatpacker. Workers said that because of the rapid line speed, they weren't able to properly stun animals before slaughtering them; many cows were still alive while being dismembered. as the sworn statement of over two dozen IBP workers, clearly shows that these animals were chained by the leg, hung upside down, and the butchering process was begun on them, while they were still fully conscious. clearly shows these animals are blinking, the workers are reporting that they're mooing, they're kicking, they're struggling. This is not simply a reflex, this is an animal that's undergoing torture. Intense pain, they're reacting to being cut, they're reacting to being hung upside down. They're reacting to having their skin peeled off them when they're still conscious.
