Poor Conditions of Animals being Raised for Human Use

My topic is going to focus on the living conditions animals endure in their lifetime that are subjected to human uses and testing.

I already know much about apparel production in relation to animals. Animals such as the most common, minks and foxes, are held in fur farms for their entire lives. They are raised there for one single purpose of life, to be killed and have their fur made into various apparel garments. There has been many disturbing investigations of fur farms where inhumane activities take place. Its bad enough that these animals are even killed but the way they are killed is shocking. Electrocution, beating to death, suffocation, and even breaking their necks are just a few of the methods used. Millions upon millions of animals each year are killed for apparel use.

Another topic i will most likely focus on is the food production industry and their methods of raising animals for food. Last year i received a pamphlet from an animal abuse activist that included many disturbing pictures and explanations of what really occurs in these farms. From that i learned that these farms will hold thousands of chickens in one cage. These chickens are just stacked on top of each other struggling for life every day with no care. They often get cuts and even lose limbs and have to live the rest of their lives with no care until they are killed and produced into food.

These are just a few ideas i have so far but im also considering adding one more aspect of abuse such as animal testing.
