An eyewitness found pigs with bloody sores, mother pigs so injured that they
could barely move, and dead piglets teeming with maggots left to rot near their
surviving siblings at East Fork Farms in Indiana—a veritable hell on Earth for these clever, social
animals.
The eyewitness documented that mother pigs were nearly immobilized in crates
barely bigger than their bodies, unable to comfort or tend to the piglets who
slowly died just beyond their reach. Two pregnant pigs were even crammed
together in one tiny prison cell!
Soon after piglets were born, workers cut off their tails without providing any
pain relief—a standard practice in the industry—and some helpless animals were
tossed through the air as they wailed and bled. Trampled or deformed piglets
were simply left to writhe on the filthy floor.
Rats, roaches, maggots, and other insects had free run of the dilapidated sheds,
and the waste-encrusted floors were littered with piglets' bloated bodies and
decomposing heads and tails. Manure constantly oozed through the wooden slats of
the floor from a reeking pit below. Some animals even fell into this brimming
cesspool and became stranded, struggling desperately not to drown in a lake of
excrement.
This dungeon-like "farm" supplied JBS USA—the nation's second-largest pig
killer, whose products are sold by Kroger, Costco, and many other grocers—until
PETA released this footage, prompting JBS to ban the farm from its supply chain.
But if decades of powerful PETA exposés like this one have taught the public
anything, it's that abuse, neglect, and appalling conditions are all standard
practices whenever animals are raised and killed for their flesh.
That's why, from the moment we broke this case at a news conference near the JBS
slaughterhouse that killed pigs who survived this farm, PETA has demanded that
the company's brands stop spouting fairy tales about humane treatment of animals
and investigate their suppliers firsthand. And most importantly, we're
encouraging millions of consumers to see the individuals behind the bacon and go
vegan.
Thank you for helping us spread compassion for pigs and all other animals.
Very truly yours,
Ingrid E. Newkirk
President

[[link removed]]U.S. GOVERNMENT AGREES WITH PETA, CALLS FOR REDUCTION IN ANIMAL TESTS
[{EXTERNAL_URL~[link removed]}]
In a new report, the U.S. Government Accountability Office has credited PETA
scientists' cutting-edge work promoting non-animal tests and urged federal agencies to be transparent with the public about their success in
reducing animal testing. And the National Institutes of Health—the world's
largest public funder of crude and cruel animal experiments—has agreed that this
success should be tracked.

After two and a half years of determined PETA pressure—including tens of
thousands of e-mails and phone calls from our supporters, help from actors and
rock stars, and an outcry from humans with muscular dystrophy as well as
hundreds of physicians—we've reached a turning point. Texas A&M University has
announced that it has stopped breeding golden retrievers and other dogs to be
victims for its canine muscular dystrophy laboratory.

[[link removed]]Fritz
[[link removed]]
A PETA fieldworker discovered Fritz confined to a crate without any food or
water. The emaciated, matted little dog reeked of urine, an indication that he
probably spent most, if not all, of his time inside the crate. After some
discussion, his owner agreed to allow PETA to find him a new home.
After PETA provided Fritz with grooming, nutritious food, and treatment for
parasites, he turned into a vibrant pup. His adopter says that his exuberance is
irresistible to everyone he meets and that he carefully selects a souvenir leaf
or stick during each walk to take back home with him.
