Currently, there are “four Canadian and three to five Mexican plants in operation with federal licenses and government-inspected programs necessary for export markets” (Stull 69).

Every year about 56 billion animals in the United States are massacred by humans. These innocent animals are slaughtered for our taste enjoyment and fashion. Pigs, cows, and chickens are being treated inadequate living conditions slaughterhouses. Instead of animals, they are treated like property and objects. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals exclaims, “On today’s factory farms, animals are crammed by the thousands into filthy, windowless sheds and stuffed into wire cages, metal crates

Draft 2 What are currently the poor conditions for animals in the American slaughterhouses, what are the causes of these conditions, and what are the best methods for preventing slaughterhouse cruelty?

According to an article written by Brandon Gaille, 80% of American voters are against horse slaughter. But, I want you to consider what would happen if the US allowed horse slaughter back into its borders again. Could you imagine walking into a steakhouse and ordering a horse steak? American horses are being sent into other
