The footage captures a mother pig subjected to unimaginable fear and pain—shot in the head three times with a defective bolt gun before she was killed. It also uncovers pigs with organs bulging outside their bodies, enduring agonizing pain and violence, including slapping, kneeing, and being hit with paddles.
These shocking findings reveal the dire conditions and inhumane treatment pigs endure, underscoring the urgent need for regulatory reform and better enforcement of animal welfare standards.

PQA Plus, developed by the National Pork Board, was intended to provide reliable standards for pork production. It aims to reassure consumers of the industry’s commitment to animal welfare.
A recently released Mercy For Animals white paper analyzes a decade of undercover footage from Mercy For Animals and Animal Outlook. Unsurprisingly, the findings expose significant problems with the PQA Plus program, revealing a disturbing pattern of rampant animal cruelty.
Pigs deserve better. Please join us by urging your representative to support the Pigs and Public Health Act

, which would create real, enforceable standards to protect pigs.
Sincerely,
Luiza Schneider
Vice President of Investigations
