Cuddling cows
OPINION: Years of floods and low food prices have driven a dairy farm in England's northeast to stop milking its cows and instead charge visitors to cuddle them.
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!
