Unfortunately for most of the animals born into the agriculture industry, their fate is exploitation, abuse and premeditated death. This spring, AFA rescued two piglets from a pig factory farm, one bobby calf who had been separated from his mother, and two young layer hens from an industrial “free range” farm.
