Animals are also victims of inhumane farming methods.explain how they get affected
Answers
Answer:
- Four or more egg-laying hens are packed into a battery cage, a wire enclosure so small that none can spread her wings. Being held in such close confines, the hens peck at each other’s feathers and bodies.
- Pregnant sows spend each of their pregnancies confined to a gestation crate—a metal enclosure that is scarcely wider and longer than the sow herself. Unable to even turn around, sows develop abnormal behaviors, and suffer leg problems and skin lesions.
- Growing pigs are confined to slatted, bare, concrete floors. Stressed by crowding and boredom, they frequently resort to biting and inflicting wounds upon their penmates.
- In factory dairies, cows spend their entire lives confined to concrete. To boost production, some cows are injected with the growth hormone rBGH, leading to lameness and mastitis, a painful infection of the udder.
In order to facilitate confinement of these animals in such stressful, crowded, unsanitary conditions, painful mutilations like cutting off the horns of cattle, cutting off the beaks of chickens, and docking the tails of sheep, pigs, and dairy cattle are routinely performed.
Thanks for the question.
Hope it helps you.
Animals are also victims of inhumane farming methods.
For example:
1) The dairy animals are often become the victim of overgrazing for more dairy production and weight increase for the meat production.
2) The egg producing birds are become victim of different artificial hormone therapy which artificially increase their egg laying capabilities.
3) The wool producing animals are also victims of this hormone applied farming method.
And many more.
All of the above mentioned points perform a very bad effect on these domestic animals and birds.
