Undercover Pig Farm Video


“A disturbing video released exclusively to Fox News by the animal rights group Mercy for Animals (MFA) shows a string of alleged abuses at one of the nation’s largest pig farms, including footage of employees picking up baby pigs and tossing them like footballs.”

When I watched the video, here’s what I saw:

  • Piglets grabbed by their ears and tossed into bins
  • Piglets squealing in fear and pain
  • Open wounds on sows
  • Cruel gestation and farrowing crates
  • A piglet’s head trapped between bars and the wall
  • Piglets crammed in together and jabbed to move tighter together
  • Ineffective (and therefore cruel) “euthanasia”
  • The footage was taken at “a large pig-breeding farm in central Pennsylvania owned by Country View Family Farms (CVFF).”

    “What we documented is standard and largely accepted by the pork industry and as a civilized society it’s our moral obligation to make sure animals don’t suffer needless cruelty. It’s important we look at these animals the same way we look at dogs and cats because there is no difference. They feel the same pain, the same joy our beloved animals at home do,”

    ~Daniel Hauff, MFA Director of Investigations
