Hey AnimalLeftist - We do not think of barns as "barren environments", animal care is the most important part of any farmers job. We keep pigs in barns to protect them from harsh weather, predators and illness. Keeping pigs in barns allows farmers to provide them with the best possible care, being that they are able to monitor and control things such as climate and accessibility to feed.

Today's farms are larger to keep up with the demand of the growing population. Many "large operations" are still family owned farms contributing to not only the world food supply, but the food their own families consume. Animal care and wellbeing is of top priority to the vast majority of those involved in the industry, it has to be, in order to provide a safe wholesome product for their own families and others alike.

Those who work with pigs on a daily basis are often greatly hurt and concerned when the pigs and piglets are injured, sick, or distressed. They work with the animals everyday so our farmers take great pride and satisfaction when their pigs are healthy and content. Farmers also receive formal training in quality assurance programs about proper handling, medication, and animal health.

If you have men who will exclude any of god's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.

--St. Francis of Assisi

For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy & love.

--Pythagoras

I abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look upon murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.

--Leonardo Da Vinci

What breed?

So many piglets! Lol

I work with these cute little piglets on a daily basis-I treat them as they are my own livestock. If my pigs get sick I'm concerned same as if my child was sick, if they are injured I treat them like a doctor would a human, when they are hungry I feed them. Don't let a few animal abusing idiots ruin your view of the pork industry. 99% of the people complaining about the living conditions probably haven't even set foot inside a sow farm....you'd be surprised how clean it really is.

How do you justify such barren environments?

[WhiskerzDogTV]

[WhiskerzDogTV]

THAT WOMAN IS EVIL !!! how can she do this to them!?! they dont deserve being in cages!

[pattygoody]

@OhioPorkTour Ummm...they're still killed, no matter how you want to sugar coat this. I'm glad I'm vegan...I can sleep easy at night.

@BCPinkwabbit Keep reading in your Bible. Like Scotty8520 said Genesis 9:2 says "And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered." (KJV) Also If you would open up your Bible to that section labeled "New Testament" You would learn that we are under the new law. That means it doesn't matter the kind of animals we eat.

Many people talk about exploitation. What form of profit building throughout the entire world is not based on some form of exploitation.
