Dead Turkeys The filthy and stressful conditions on factory farms lead to extremely high mortality rates. Millions of turkeys don't make it past the first few weeks before succumbing to "starve-out," a stress-induced condition that causes young birds to simply stop eating. Some die of pneumonia or other respiratory illness aggravated by the high levels of ammonia in the sheds; others die of dehydration or starve to death after their legs give out under their drug-induced bulk and they are unable to reach food. |
