Imagine being trapped, abused, cramped, and caged all for the sake of either having your stripped flesh spoiled in a store, or thrown into the trash. Animals endure such conditions in factory farms across the world, suffering because so many people turn a blind eye to the things going on within the establishments that supply the world’s meat.
