More than 90% of pigs raised for Australias pork, bacon and ham products are confined in factory farmsa fact not advertised by the pork industry. Caring Australians are buying these products not realising that they are supporting animal cruelty.
In factory farms, painful surgical procedures are performed on pigs without pain relief and sow stalls confine pregnant pigs in cages so tiny that they cannot even turn around. These cruel cages have been banned in Britain, Sweden and Switzerland, and are being phased out elsewhere. Yet last year, Australian politicians voted to continue to allow their use.

Yes, and we also import pork and ham where the animals have suffered from a wasting disease: I do eat ham and pork, but I buy it from the deli who sources it from just over the river, where the farmer keeps his pigs in proper surroundings and treats them well. Pigs are as intelligent as dogs and early Kinders!!!

I think that was a very wise title for your post. People really underestimate the intelligence of animals. It’s hard to eat something that’s as smart as a preschooler.
