TransportCattle who survive feedlots, dairy sheds, and veal farms face a hellish trip to the slaughterhouse. The animals are packed onto trucks, where they will go without food for the journey—sometimes days. In hot weather, the cows often collapse in the heat, and in the cold, cows sometimes freeze to the side of the truck and workers pry them off with crowbars. According to former Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman, roughly 400,000 "dead and dying" cattle are forced onto trucks bound for slaughter each year. |
