Q: What are farrowing crates? 🐖
A: A metal cage mother pigs are kept in for 5 weeks every time they give birth to piglets. They severely restrict movement, she can’t even turn around. Approx 200,000 pigs p.a suffer like this in U.K. Sign HSI/UK’s petition: hsi.org/TheCrateEscape

Every year, mother pigs are confined in cages where they can’t even turn around or interact with their piglets. Please add your name to the petition to help End the Cage Age. bit.ly/Stop-Farrowing-Crates #TheCrateEscape
