Takeover bid?
OPINION: Canterbury milk processor Synlait is showing no sign of bouncing back from its financial doldrums.
It claims this involves killing cows during pregnancy and draining blood from unborn calves and wants the Government and the National Animal Welfare Advisory Committee (NAWAC) "to remove suffering from the supply chain".
As usual, this campaign is based on disinformation, trying to provoke an emotional response. In reality, farms in New Zealand can legally send cows to slaughter up until their final month of pregnancy and the usual standards of humane killing apply.
Another farcical campaign from SAFE!
