WCAX Exclusive Investigation: Vt. pig farmer fined - WCAX.COM Local Vermont News, Weather and Sports-
This is a cautionary tale. It is not likely that this is an isolated case. Local, humane, etc have become buzz words. Are consumers feeling guilty about eating factory raised meat? If you really want to be sure your meat is humanely raised, antibiotic and hormone free you need to do your homework.
Impressed that someone at the slaughterhouse spoke up. They probably saw obvious signs for a long time.
It isn't just livestock that can spread diseases from one area to another. Puppy transport has done the same thing. To the uneducated it may seem innocent but the truth is, large scale movement of animals without proper regulation and veterinary oversight is dangerous and inhumane. The farmer may take a financial hit but the disease outbreak would cause terrible physical suffering and likely death to the animals. What do you think?
