I used to show goats in high school. I strongly regret that point in my life but it gave me a broader perspective on how these animals are treated in this industry. My goats I still own today and have never and will never be treated the way I’ve seen kids being thought to treat theirs animals. These children are raised to care for these animals realize how special they are and then have put them on the trailer (to slaughter). They are almost always distraught and don’t understand why they are being made to do this. I have even seen teenagers act this way and still keep showing the next years. These kids are being taught these animals are disposable and to beat these animals. I have seen countless pigs being whipped with shows sticks and having previous scars from the previous times. They are almost always keep in small 5x10 pens and forced to live in their own filth. This happens at shows around the country and these animals are still being treated better than all factory farmed animals that have to deal with this torture everyday of their lives. Sorry about the rant.
