Canada bans gestation crates! - Tobi - 03-08-2014 Great news! Canada has banned gestation crates for pigs! http://www.care2.com/causes/success-canada-bans-gestation-crates-for-pigs.html Thanks to thousands of people who signed petitions to ban this intensive farming practice, where pregnant sows do not have enough room to move properly, or turn around. RE: Canada bans gestation crates! - Catherine - 03-09-2014 I am so happy to hear this. I hadn't heard the news. I feel better about my country now that we are doing the right thing. I still can't believe we ever treated animals this way. I hope this change spreads around the world and I hope this change spreads to our treatment of other kinds of animals. |
