Blog 15, Part I: Summarizing the Stories + Part II: Responding to a Factory Farming Issue

Part one.
The Meatrix

       This short film describes the process that animals endure will at a slaughter house. Many farm lands are being destroyed because of these large slaughters houses/factories. Most of your meat eggs and milk come from places like this. Long ago agriculture corporations began changing family farming to maximize their profits. animals are packed as closely together as possible. the cruel conditions forced animals to fight and kill each other. Also the rise of disease also has an effect on the animals.


The Meatrix: Revoltingg

     In this short film "The Meatrix; Revolting" it tells us how slaughter houses work. Most people are not aware of the abuse and torture that take place in these factories/slaughter houses. The animals also have to deal with filthy conditions and inhuman settings. 


           
The Meatrix II 1/2

      The Meatrix 11 1/2 goes more in dept on how slaughter houses work and process there meats eggs and milk.  Factories or slaughter like to work at a fast pace in order to get more meat processed by doing this workers are being injured.


Part Two
Animal Welfare


       All around this country, animals used for meat, eggs, and dairy often suffer on farms where they are treated as "things" of production rather than animals. The factories where the animals are being raised are often large, over populated, filthy and inhuman. Many times animals will be kept in one cage that the amount of toxic levels rise and often make the animals ill or even kill them.
      Cows that are unfortunately born into the dairy production are only allowed to stay with the mother for about twelve hours before it is whisked away to live a "wonderful" life being tortured and abused. One the cow has grown to the "proper" size and they are no longer producing milk it is taken to the slaughter house. While being transported from the truck to the slaughter house many of the cows are injured and unable to walk.They are "pushed prodded and shoved into the slaughter house.
    Just before a new pig is to arrive the mother pig is placed into a small crate maid lay on her side. When the piglet is born the nails and teeth and quickly clipped so they don't harm the other pigs. When the pigs are old enough they are taken away from their mothers and placed inside a pin. The pigs is usually inactive always showing signs of stress and aggression. When the pigs are transported they often experience mistreatment in part with any illness they picked up while at the factory many die will being transported.
        Most chickens are given hormone shots which make their muscles grow at an alarming rate. a majority of the times the chickens will lose the ability to walk. Many chickens are locked up on a very small cage. Most of the time it is so crowed in the cage the chickens will start attacking the other chickens with their beaks. Due to this half of the chickens beak is usually cut off. 
          Although a lot of people know what is going on in these places refuse to change anything about their life habitats which will in return help protect our animals. better laws should be enforced to protect the animals and the people.

  11. Hi, my name is Windy.
    Your summary is good, but i think you missed some information about antibiotic. The factory farms add a constant dosage of antibiotic to feed animal.
    It's nice that you wrote the life about cows, pigs and chicken. It would better if you wrote more your own opinion.

  18. hey! i am abrenim. you have a really important information,also a good summary.

    i think those fast food companies do not think about the health of the people and they do not care of anything but their money.this is causing more and more trouble in our society and the world.consequently we are expose every day more to get diseases injuries and health too.

    if u were part of the government what would you do to stop this epidemic system?

  21. Hi Newbe; ! My name is Ala, I’m from ENG 099.
    I think you did very well in your summary, maybe you should have written something about The Meatrix members, Moopheus, Neo and Chickity, in addition to your text. The essay was great. I do agree with you that animals aren’t supposed to be treated so cruel after all the meat, eggs and dairy that we are using from them. In addition to this I liked the way you supported your ideas with details. Writing about the cows, pigs and chickens living. I got to learn some information that I didn’t know before.
    Why do you think people refuse to change anything about their life habitats ?

  22. I like how you wrote. It was clear to understand because you seperated each idea and animal. Can you tell me about what you think of this? How can we stop this? Will you buy from the factories now?
