The images in the following program are very sensitive and may be as disturbing to viewers as they were to us. However, we have to show the truth about cruelty to animals.

Vegetarian Johan: I remember one thing in particular from my visits to the pig factories. I will never forget those sad eyes. The other pigs were crowded and tried to escape the dirty boxes.

He just stood there and looked at me straight in the eyes. I felt so helpless. It was painful to leave him there.

VO1: For the past two years, Animal Rights Alliance has examined the Swedish pig industry. One hundred farms across the country have been visited.

The investigation reveals widespread animal cruelty and shatters the myth of Swedish animal welfare.
Animal Rights Alliance presents LIFE AS A PIG

HOST: Pigs are among the world’s cleanest and most intelligent animals, and possess tender, affectionate hearts. In the wild they live in forests and enjoy native delicacies such as grasses and roots.

Mother pigs spend days building nests with leaves or straw to welcome and raise their young. Studies have shown that the mothers sing for their piglets while nursing them.

These clever, chubby animals are playful and protective, and form loving relationships with family and friends just as humans do.

Anyone who has ever spent time with pigs will agree they are adorable, warm beings who desire a good snuggle from a human anytime. 

Sadly, however, the vast majority of these soulful animals with eyes that sparkle like those of humans are factory farmed. Around the world, pigs are bred mechanically in a kind of living death, without regard for their feelings, thoughts and needs.

On today’s Stop Animal Cruelty program we present excerpts from a heart-wrenching documentary by the Swedish animal welfare group the Animal Rights Alliance entitled, 『Life as a Pig,』 which reveals the shocking reality behind the pig-raising industry in Sweden.

Words cannot describe the agonies of factory-farmed pigs, which begin at birth and last until the moment of their tragic deaths.
