Chilling undercover footage recorded during a new Mercy For Animals
investigation exposes dairy farm workers sadistically abusing cows and
young calves.
Captured on hidden camera, the shocking scenes of abuse reveal a culture of cruelty at Conklin Dairy Farms in Plain City, Ohio.

During a four-week investigation between April and May, MFA's investigator documented farm workers:

Violently punching young calves in the face, body slamming them to the ground, and pulling and throwing them by their ears
Routinely using pitchforks to stab cows in the face, legs and stomach
Kicking "downed" cows (those too injured to stand) in the face and neck – abuse carried out and encouraged by the farm's owner
Maliciously beating restrained cows in the face with crowbars – some attacks involving over 40 blows to the head
Twisting cows' tails until the bones snapped
Punching cows' udders
Bragging about stabbing, dragging, shooting, breaking bones, and beating cows and calves to death
After
viewing the footage, Dr. Bernard Rollin, distinguished professor of
animal science at Colorado State University, stated: "This is probably
the most gratuitous, sustained, sadistic animal abuse I have ever seen.
The video depicts calculated, deliberate cruelty, based not on momentary
rage but on taking pleasure through causing pain to cows and calves who
are defenseless."

Immediately upon completion of the
investigation, Mercy For Animals contacted the City Prosecutor's Office
of Marysville regarding the ongoing pattern of abuse at Conklin Dairy
Farms. MFA is pushing for employees of the facility to be criminally
prosecuted for violating Ohio's animal cruelty laws.

The
deplorable conditions uncovered at Conklin Dairy Farms highlight the
reality that animal agriculture is incapable of self-regulation and that
meaningful federal and state laws must be implemented and strengthened
to prevent egregious cruelty to farmed animals.

Although many of
the abuses documented at Conklin Dairy Farms are sadistic in nature,
numerous MFA undercover investigations at dairy farms, pig farms, egg
farms, hatcheries and slaughterhouses have revealed that violence and
abuse to farmed animals – whether malicious or institutionalized – runs
rampant nationwide.

Compassionate consumers can end their direct
financial support of farmed animal abuse by (insert vegan propaganda here. Ugh)
