| Description |
An investigation at a Tyson pig factory farm in Oklahoma, West Coast Farms, uncovered sadistic animal abuse, including workers throwing a bowling ball at a pig's head, and kicking, throwing, hitting, body slamming, and otherwise torturing pigs. The investigator also documented thousands of pregnant pigs crammed in gestation crates so small the animals could not even turn around or lie down comfortably for nearly their entire lives. The investigation received widespread media coverage from NBC News, LA Times, Mother Jones, and more. The abuses caught on tape were widely condemned by animal welfare experts. Following the investigation, Tyson immediately dropped its contract with the factory farm, and local law enforcement is investigating. Tyson is a major pork supplier to Walmart. MFA is calling on Walmart to adopt new animal welfare guidelines prohibiting Tyson and its other pork suppliers from confining pigs in crates barely larger than their own bodies. |
