Just another form of factory farming and well done PTW for exposing it. This needs to get on national TV so all those who shoot can see the reality of what goes on.
I expect many “corporate” shooters don’t know the background and perhaps many of them won’t care. However like drunk driving, if it becomes socially unacceptable then less people will do it over time. Keep up the great work.
Like petting farms are to give children a day out where everything is looking spot on, it would be interesting to see what would happen if a similar event was organised to show the lives of factory game birds.
I have see Game Fayre advertised from time to time. I assumed it was clay pigeon shooting and gun dog trials, with decoys .
Adding a display of cages or films of the conditions inside might be interesting enough for spreading the truth?
How can anyone live with themselves knowing that they’re part of a system that causes so much suffering? When are we going to learn that animals don’t exist to be abused by us, just so that we can make money. What a sad, reprehensible species we are!
Just to add that many years earlier I wrote to Queen Elizabeth II many times about my horror at the royal family's obvious support for fox hunting - I received countless replies thanking me for those letters which were clearly disregarded! But thanks to the efforts of a great many anti-hunt activists the royals ceased their fox-hunting activities.
I can never come to terms with the whole 'shooting birds is a fun day out' for apparently 'civilised' humans allow living creatures to be bred in these horrific conditions just to be murdered or maimed on their first flights. I've been a 'socialist royalist' (surely a contradition in terms) all my life (70+ years) but I have had to accept that they are a big part of this sick culture. Believe me, I have written countless letters to the various members of the royal family and I have told them that I withdraw my previous support from them. Not that my stance makes the slightest difference to them obviously! I would still rather have the existing constitutional monarchy rather than a republic but I don't shout about it so often.
