“Food animals” are engineered and brutalized at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center

“An incredibly important investigative essay in the New York Times by Michael Moss called “U.S. Research Lab Lets Livestock Suffer in Quest for Profit” shows clearly and in most disturbing detail that “food animals” — including cows and lambs — at Nebraska’s tax-payer financed U.S. Meat Animal Research Center are brutally harmed and killed — some left to die on their own or killed by predators — in their reprehensible quest for profit.”

VLA RESPONSE:

We’ve spoken out about this many times. The shocking truth behind animal food production is that this has been happening for years and will continue to happen as the world’s demand for animal foods continues to increase. We’ve reached the stage where animals are so grotesquely manipulated that we’ve made their short lives on this planet an even more miserable hell.
In constant pain many cannot walk properly, breathe with comfort, or even move or care for their young. Can you imagine a lifetime spent like this?
We cant. It must be unbearable.
And to think that it’s entirely unnecessary! Vegans are living, breathing proof of this fact.
We understand that people don’t want to hear about or know about this abuse of animals. The truth is an uncomfortable thing to deal with, isn’t it. But the great news is that you can live a lifestyle, right now, where you don’t need to contribute to this pain and suffering and you don’t need to further line the pockets of those industries that perpetuate it.

Come on an adventure with us and discover the Vegan lifestyle and how liberating it can be.
