and it's very similar in all countries. non-human animals are treated like exploitable disposable objects.

Inconvenient truth: ‘Most LIVESTOCK in the 🇺🇸 is #FactoryFarmed’ (And no, scaling up #FreeRange farming is neither mathematically feasible nor morally desirable. It is objectively wrong to harm animals when avoidable)

Screenshot from https://ourworldindata.org/data-insights/almost-all-livestock-in-the-united-states-is-factory-farmed

Our World in Data graphic

Most livestock in the United States
is factory-farmed

"Factory farms" are defined as "concentrated animal feeding operations" based on the US EPA's definition of holding a large number of animals in an intensive feeding operation for more than 45 days.

🐓 99.96% of chickens are factory-farmed.
That's 9.2 billion.

🐟 100% of farmed fish are factory-farmed.
That's 530 million.

🐣 98.3% of egg-laying hens are factory-farmed.
That's 380 million.

🦃 99.8% of turkeys are factory-farmed.
That's 260 million.

🐄 75% of cows
are factory-farmed.
That's 66 million.

🐖 98.6% of pigs
are factory-farmed.
That's 73 million.

i wouldn't say she is the victim. an unwilling perpetrator, maybe. the victims are the non-human animals being tortured, bred and killed for needless human whims.

what is needed is for an end to the farming of animals. animals are sentient beings, not vegetables, so why be treated as disposable exploitable objects for human pleasure and tradition? when we humans can thrive on plant-fungi diets? animal farming is horrible, and also happens to be

kaktusbird @kaktusbird.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

and many people think that suffering only happens in very rare cases but no, it is ingrained in the very standard practices. and slaughterhouses are horrible places where the animals tremble in fear waiting to be killed... and all those who are farmed are sent there when "spent".

The more one watches footage from animal farms and slaughterhouses, the clearer it becomes how utterly cruel and indefensible this exploitation truly is — and the deeper the regret for ever having been part of it.

there is a lot of propaganda from animal farming industry, and many people even think that veganism is "extreme", which is astounding, seeing as it is basic morality of not causing needless deliberate harm. i think what is extreme is causing the horrible harm when we no longer need to.

kaktusbird @kaktusbird.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

there is no "humane" torture, breeding sentient beings forth to be productive and sending them to wait to be killed, when it is unnecessary. and we humans thrive on plant-based diets & so have no need to exploit animals. and most people don't even know yet how versatile and delicious vegan food is 💚

kaktusbird @kaktusbird.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

basic standard practices of farming animals would be considered torture if done to a dog, in western societies. but our modern societies, globally, treat non-human animals like disposable trash, legally. the only way to change this is be vegan and inform others 👍💚.

kaktusbird @kaktusbird.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

helping is good👍, but the most important thing we can do is not harm them (and other sentient beings) in the first place, i.e. being vegan, aka avoiding unnecessary harm where possible & practicable. veganism is also vastly better for environment, climate, biodiversity, rainforests, antibiotics etc.

So this photo contains zero birds, but in my defence, we were sitting outside waiting for birds. But the sun was almost setting and the backlit Snapdragons stole the show!

A backlit snapdragon flower that is partially opened. The background is dark green with a round sun like highlight in the top right corner. It’s actually an out of focus highlight that appears large because it’s a telephoto lens. The pink snapdragon flower is rim lit but has some light bouncing back to light the flower.
For those interested, the lens is a 400mm and required 5 frames focused on slightly different parts of the flower to be stacked together so the entire flower was sharp .

A yellow and black swallowtail butterfly hovers above a pink flower on the right hand side of the frame. It is looking straight on at the camera and its wings are nearly flat. Both antennae are clearly seen above its head. Another blurry small pink flower can be seen in the lower left, and the rest of the background is blurred greens.

some things are easy to avoid, others not as much. the more people become vegan, and avoid the main products of harm, the "food" items especially, of mutilated body parts and forced reproductive secretions, they will also stop appearing in small amounts in everything else...

It’s very endearing footage, isn’t it.

Yellow illustration of Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet walking away together beside a large tree. Overlaid text reads:

“Pooh, will my slaughter be humane?”

“I don’t know, Piglet. Do you want to live?”

“Yes, I do. I want to live.”

the very standard practices of animal farming are torturous to sentient beings. animal farming is animal abuse. and it is totally unnecessary in today's modern societies. and is a leading cause of climate change, deforestation, pandemics, water shortage, antibiotic resistance, food shortage etc.
