Once upon a time, deep in the heart of Wales there were 53 pigs trapped in this disgusting place below.
Standing waiting to die with nothing to eat but the guts of others.
Read on.
A very brave woman heard about this place and the cruelty within.
She went out of her way to rescue them all.
But it was not easy because they had been condemned to die because of contamination.
But she fought long and hard and never gave up.
While fighting for them some of the 53 had piglets at a holding unit after they were seized by DEFRA. Resulting in 91 in total.
But the brave woman was not dismayed and in fact even more driven.
She did not have the facilities to look after them all so the vegan community all rallied together to build them a new home. A place where 91 pigs call all fit, dry, safe and warm.
Look how happy they all are.
But no story just ends abruptly
91 pigs many of which are around half a tonne each can live for over 15 years
So this story has a long way to go yet
To help the brave woman we have created a very special club.
Veganism recognises that all creatures are sentient & that every living creature has the right to live their life free from exploitation, persecution & suffering.
1. This egg is 'chipping' If you look closely you can see the egg tooth of the little chick inside. The egg tooth is at the tip of all babies beaks and helps them break free from the shell.
2. The little chick inside the egg rotates around the egg until he or she has made a removable lid. They are clever little babies & they cheep to call to their mums all through this process.
3. Then with wriggling and pushing suddenly she/he experiences the outside world for the first time.
