Imagine how long each day feels for an animal trapped in a cage.
For a mother pig, it’s the damp concrete floor on her skin. The way her whole body aches, stuck in the same cramped position, restrained by metal bars. The sheer boredom that leaves her with nothing to do but gnaw on the cold metal.
For the bird in a commercial egg facility, it’s the wire floor digging into her sensitive feet—all day, every day. The suffering animals all around her, crying out and frantically jostling for space. Her wings aching. Her spirit crushed.
You know that hens deserve to roam and spread their wings; not slowly perish against the bars of a small, crowded cage. You know pigs deserve sunlight and fresh air; not dark, filthy corners.
Our broken food system has been normalizing extreme cruelty for the last century. Because people in power realized that if they could convince us to see certain animals as less worthy of respect and care, they could profit from it.
