Why You Should Care About Sheep

Like chickens and turkeys, ducks are farmed at an industrial scale in many parts of the world, including Australia. For the duration of their lives—seven weeks—they live in large sheds that have no water to swim in and are not cleaned. Because ducks are water fowl, their legs are not built to stand for long periods of time. On top of this, ducks raised for meat are bred to grow unnaturally fast. As a result, they often have broken legs, in addition to other injuries. They also frequently have illnesses that result from not being able to bathe. This farm held hundreds of thousands of ducks, at a density of eight ducks per square meter.
