In late 2011 and early 2012, a PETA investigator worked at a New York state dairy factory farm.
Milk from this farm is used by Agri-Mark, maker of Cabot cheese.
When PETA’s investigator reported that workers were hitting cows, a manager had this to say:
The same manager repeated the electroshock to cow, in the face.
This calf is about to be dehorned; a standard, painful practice in the dairy industry in
which tissue on the top of calves’ heads is burnt so as to stop the horns from growing.
No pain relief at all was given to calves dehorned on this farm.
Cow’s 8601’s *** protruded from her body. A manager admitted that she and other
cows are left to suffer from this and other painful conditions. Those who survive are
sent to slaughter.
This cow is about to be artificially inseminated; another standard practice on dairy factory
farms. Here, a manager rakes feces out of her *** before inserting what the dairy
industry calls a *** gun into her ***.
If you do not wish to support the dairy industry’s cruelty to cows, please go vegan for their
sake.
