As Mother's Day approaches, my heart breaks for the mother cows in the dairy industry who have their babies torn away from them over and over again. 💔 Cows are deeply maternal animals who are known to bellow for days when their calves are taken away within just hours of their birth. The calves of these mothers end up being slaughtered for veal or become trapped in the hell of the dairy industry themselves. Cows are forcibly impregnated in the dairy industry, and when they are no longer able to produce babies, they are sent for slaughter. 😞 * This footage is taken from the video I produced of an Animal Justice exposé at an ORGANIC dairy farm in British Columbia. P.S. It's important to note that the folks who work in this industry often have no choice (they're often some of the most vulnerable in our society who are desperate for a job) and they're forced to desensitize to get that job done. :( It's the consumers of dairy who have a choice.
Deplorable isn't strong enough word, but that's all I can think of at this moment. I'll never understand how a human being can treat another being in such cruel and heartless manner. I also can't understand why we don't have laws to protect them from this kind of abuse.
This is beyond tragic. Humans have NO idea the pain they have inflicted on animals.
That is so heartbreaking to watch. I wish people would wake up and listen to inner guidance more. 😔
That's not how it's done on the vast majority of dairy farms....or any farms. I know. I've been there.
oh my, don't want to see this - but I have to - we all have to No words Jennifer :(
Can you have mercy for the innocent creatures 💔😡
That is so unbelievably horrible. The whole milk industry is
I was waiting for something illuminating. It didnt come.
