The Conservative Animal Welfare Foundation Has Created a Campaign to Help UK Pigs


Pigs

The Conservative Animal Welfare Foundation has created a new campaign to help pigs in the UK, which is great news.


They have set up a campaign called 'The Crate Escape.'


The Crate Escape is a campaign set up to help pigs in the UK which are kept living within pig farrowing crates. The pigs which are held in pig farrowing crates are female pigs, more specifically these female pigs are mothers.


These crates are very cruel because the mother pigs are kept in metal crates - the flooring is metal and the bars are metal, with no space for the mothers to move around in or be comfortable - imaging living your life in this way, that's heartbreakingly the condition that these beautiful pigs are forced to live in.


The mother pigs' babies are also forced to live in these metal cages.


Keeping beings who can feel happiness, and pain, and that are conscious and intelligent trapped like this is barbaric, we need to end these crates and create a more compassionate world and UK for pigs.


Pigs Are also one of the most intelligent animals in the world, known to be just or even more intelligent than dogs.


It's Time we created a kinder and more compassionate society for pigs in the UK and ban these farrowing crates. Check the video below to see more about the campaign.
