Uploaded on May 19, 2010
Using a hidden camera, a COK investigator documented shocking abuses forced upon newly-hatched chicks and ducklings while employed at Cal-Cruz Hatcheries in 2009. The video evidence was immediately turned over to the Santa Cruz County Animal Services Authority and the District Attorneys Office. In response, a follow-up investigation conducted by humane law enforcement not only corroborated our evidence of abuse and neglect but also resulted in the impoundment of 88 ducklings.
Despite this additional documentation by authorities, the District Attorneys office held the case for several months, and in late April 2010, officially declined to prosecute the hatchery for violations of state animal protection laws.
Watch our undercover video—and you be the judge.

I am absolutely disgusted by the miserable parasites working in and profiting from the cruelty they inflict upon helpless animals in the factory farm industry.

The DA's ruling is outrageous; this situation speaks volumes about how out of balance our culture is. I appreciate COK's efforts in shedding awareness & providing reminders about this animal cruelty. I've been so saddened since seeing the TV news, and I can't bring myself to watch this unedited YouTube video. I've been a vegetarian in the past. All of my vegie cookbooks are back out. I am done eating animals and I refuse to support such insane cruelty. I encourage you to also eat vegetarian.

Why are these women's faces blocked out? they have made the choice to work here. This is heart breaking. I want to see the faces of people who would think this is appropriate.
