'Thumping' of runt or weak piglets (smashing onto floor)

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Screenshot from hidden camera footage.


The runts of the litter, and any piglets who seem sick or weak, are not given treatment or care, because that would cost more time and money than pig farms can be bothered investing. Instead, these piglets are picked up by their back legs, and slammed head-first onto the floor, not a metre away from their mothers who watch on helplessly. In large piggeries, like Midland Bacon near Stanhope, this happens every morning."
