Breeding and food


Explanation | Take action | Our news | History |
They are bred for their meat, their milk, their eggs, their liver ... Locked mainly in industrial farms, they are however sentient beings, experiencing desires, joys and sorrows. From birth to a cruel killing, their existence is nothing but suffering.

Breeding animals for food

70 billion animals are bred every year for our consumption, including 50 billion broilers and 1.4 billion cattle. Behind these colossal numbers, there are so many individuals sacrificed by an industry devoid of ethics. One Voice surveys and reports on breeding, transportation and slaughter methods show their suffering at every stage. But that's not all: pollution, loss of biodiversity, health risks and famine are also consequences of meat production.

Cruel breeding and transportation methods

In industrial farms, chickens, oxen, cows, sows never see the light of day. They will only see it whilst receiving a large number of kicks as they get into the trucks that will take them to the slaughterhouses - if they survive the trip. All kinds of needs they may feel are denied to them from beginning to end. Cages too small and poorly designed cause stress and injury. Overcrowding is also a source of conflict, which is solved mechanically by cutting the beaks of chickens or the tail of piglets...

One Voice investigation: the nightmare in French slaughterhouses

From September 2007 to September 2008, One Voice investigators infiltrated traditional slaughterhouses (practicing the stunning method) and procedures. They witnessed terrible scenes, where animals are not only terrified, but also suffer immense pain, such as chickens, stunned, who wake up before being slaughtered, or a sheep thrown alive, the neck in blood, on the remains of his congeners ... Or again a calf, trying desperately to flee...

The livestock markets

Les enquêteurs de One Voice ont également enquêté sur les marchés aux bestiaux. Ils y ont filmé veaux, vaches, moutons recevant des coups de pieds et de bâton, mais aussi un veau attaché si court qu’il est mort pendu, dans l’indifférence générale...

Breeding, a health and environmental hazard

Industrial farming has catastrophic consequences. A third of the cultivated land in the world is mobilized merely for feeding of the animals that we will consume. Expansion of intensive monocultures at the expense of forests, use of agrochemicals degrading water and soil, air pollution: intensive farming is a real environmental scourge placing meat consumption at the top of the causes of global warming!

The health hazard is also real: dangerous viruses, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, antibiotic resistance ... Long is the list that justifies, beyond ethics, that we choose a vegan lifestyle.

Milk: the drama of the cows and the sacrifice of the calves

It should be remembered that milk is the food destined for mammalian young until they are weaned. Specifically, for a sufficient production, dairy cows must give birth to a calf every year, from the age of two. They are usually artificially inseminated three months after calving. Their little one is then quickly torn away. Its destiny: future "dairy" cow or battery farm for its meat… As for the mothers, they will finish after 3 years in burgers or in the animal feed chain.

Highly genetically selected, dairy cows now produce nearly 30 liters of milk a day, instead of the 4 liters needed for a calf. As a result of multiple health problems: mastitis and lameness are common.

And if this breeding is heavily subsidized, the consumption of milk by humans is far from without consequences. Too much of it lowers our level of vitamin D. Lactose intolerance and early diabetes is also linked and the selection of a growth factor (IGF1) would even make milk a potential carcinogen!

75% of humans do not digest milk. It is time to leave it to those who really need it and whom it is suitable for... Calves, but also lambs and kids who suffer a similar fate, should not be sacrificed for this absurd production!

« Nothing will benefit human health and the survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. »
Albert Einstein

Foie gras: a cruel tradition

Foie gras is simply a liver made sick (fatty liver). Its production is at the price of terrible suffering..

The life of ducks or geese used for their liver is short and painful. On leaving the incubator, the chicks are sorted by sex. The females are thrown into a mincer and the males have their beaks burnt so that they do not mutilate one another. The young are then transported to a farm where they will roam for 90 days. Then, for 12 days, they will undergo force-feeding: twice a day, they receive in quantity a fat meal injected by a probe forced into the throat of the animal. Very quickly, their hypertrophied liver suffocates them. They suffocate and collapse nauseous. The slaughter will mark the end of their ordeal.

The mode of production of foie gras is particularly cruel. It is now banned in many countries but persists in France under the guise of tradition.
