The plight of two baby pigs – one trapped and starving, and one with a literal broken heart – shows the toll of factory farming on the youngest and most vulnerable creatures on Earth.
I cried too 😥 I have moved to Texas and seeing the blatant disregard for simply dogs here is apalling. They are property left chained up their whole lives in 109F weather and I can't do anything about it......strays everywhere. We took 1 in. So many fake rescues, so many full shelters. I then imagine all the cows, pigs, etc who are being tortured daily and transported in this heat with no food, water, covered in shit, being tortured by sick fucks and it is overwhelming. This world is just plain evil. I am not religious, but I will pray that this corrupt system lets you free. It will be an injustice. You are still a hero in my eyes.
Thank you for all you do for the animals and for me .... i am overwhelmed so often in trying to elevate animal abuse ... it is a source of strength to know there are other competent humans making difficult decisions and moving forward to help animals. It is an overwhelming journey but we are making a difference! Thank YOU!
Respect and gratitude abounds! Seeing a lawyer (and DxE team) openly confront the abhorrent practices of industrialized animal agriculture in broad daylight using existing animal welfare laws to highlight the hypocrisy, corruption, & lies has been a dream come true. It seemed that, thanks to the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act & Ag-Gag laws, the bigger animal rights groups just clamed up in regards to factory farming. Animal rights advocates & activists have pretty much only existed in the margins, on the fringe, and in the dark so I am extremely grateful for the space being made within the mainstream consciousness and in the media.
This is a colossal endeavor. Animal rights activists, environmentalists, anti-nuke activists, etc. are treated like enemies of the state & terrorists because (in government's eyes) we are screwing with their standing on the world stage. Animal agriculture affects almost every part of our economy. There is the culture aspect as well. The whole "macho men eat dead flesh" nonsense, the religious "dominion over animals" crap, the addicted crying about the proposed loss of their half-pound meat slab like a bunch of little kids whining about a "Happy" Meal, and then people who profit from the putrid practice. We need to put forth examples of new economic models (I know there are equitable and compassionate nerds out there that do this kind of thing for fun). We need to introduce proposals for tax incentives and grants for new meat alternatives. I would love to see those ranchers that have switched from animal farming to mushroom farming (or whatever) to team up and create an information bank with a basic easy to follow outline consisting of the steps that need to be taken in order to facilitate a switch, and it would be outstanding for those ranchers to have a booth at various county & state fairs in effort to present the idea in a casual non-confrontational way -grab a cotton candy, watch a Shammy-Wow demo, gander at the constant rotation of swollen bovines being hooked up to industrial yuck-suckers, and Hey! ..pick up a pamphlet and take in a brief testimonial about switching to a more sustainable and healthy product! We also need blood thinners and other drugs that are not derived from animals, it would be great if the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine spearheaded the initiative.
The looming trial will hopefully be one for the history books and perhaps now more than ever is the time for all factions of animal rights and environmentalism to unify and show support. Any gripe or grudge that manifests between groups needs to be squashed. From the ALF to PETA to Mercy For Animals to Sea Sheppard to Greenpeace... We are all on the same team. There is no room for tribalism and in-fighting. Too many lives are at stake including our own.
My heart breaks for all these animals and for you soldiers who investigates these torture farms. I live in Canada and I know it’s goes on here also. I wish more could be done with the government and the powers that be.
I knew of the evils of factory farming decades ago. This was a major reason for my choosing to be vegetarian. I didn't want to be part of that system, to contribute to it. Good that you are helping stop it.

You and your team are so brave. Thank you for everything you do to inform us of what REALLY goes on in these torture chambers called farms. Shared. X
This broke my heart also but I know what you are doing is vital for the animals!
