Support our investigation on pig farms!

Postby Jose Valle » Sat Jun 06, 2009 9:32 pm

The largest investigation into the pig breeding industry in Spain with over one hundred farms visited and more than a year's work.

Over one thousand photographs and several hours of video footage offer an unprecedented and shocking insight into life and death for pigs on both factory and 'free-range' farms in Spain. People tend to think that this kind of things only happen in other countries or that is something from the past. Showing them images of the same farms they are buying their flesh from has a bigger impact than using images from other countries. The closer to their plates the better since it's harder then for them to avoid the responsability.

We don't want to focus on conditions of exploitation -though they are unavoidable visible and horrible- but on exploitation itself. We don't advocate "happy meat" but veganism.

You can see some of the images from the investigation at:

Let me warn you before you see them that they are very graphic and explicit.

We already have many static images but we need to film some more farms on video, recover some of the best footage from a broken hard drive. Please, consider making a donation to help us meet the investigation costs and bring these images into light.
