Sad for the animals. But what do people reading the article think is going to happen to the animals anyway? They are going to get killed so you can eat them. Have you seen how they kill chickens? Hang them by their feet and slit their throats. Nice. All because YOU demand it every time you buy that pack of chicken breasts for your unimaginative "lean protein hurr durr" meal of chicken and broccoli. Maybe stop eating meat and the poor things wouldn't be in this situation in the first place.
