Dairies in Delhi, Mumbai and elsewhere in India
Undercover Investigation Reveals Horrors in India’s Dairy Industry
PETA India’s recent undercover investigation of several dairy farms revealed shocking cruelty to cows and buffaloes. Tabelas — animal factories with no provisions for health care or animal welfare — are steadily replacing small family farms.
Buffaloes in Delhi’s main dairy facility stand knee-deep in foul-smelling excrement, suffering from skin infections, foot disease and other illnesses. Garbage is piled up everywhere. Drainage, electricity and designated waste disposal sites are lacking.
In Mumbai, calves are tightly tethered on short ropes in order to prevent them from reaching their mothers, but in their struggle to get free, they often become entangled in the ropes and strangle themselves. One dairy owner reported that half the calves die shortly after birth.
An Endless Cycle of Abuse
Cows are beaten into submission and artificially inseminated so that they will keep producing milk. Although this practice should be performed by trained professionals, most cows are repeatedly inseminated by “barefoot healers” who ignore the most basic hygienic standards and use equipment that has not been sterilised, exposing cows to infections and diseases.
Most of a cow’s day is spent confined to a narrow, filthy stall. Cows are injected with Oxytocin, an illegal drug that causes them to produce unnaturally large quantities of milk and suffer severe stomach cramps as though they were in labour. Cows are impregnated repeatedly. They grieve for every calf they deliver who is ripped away a few days after birth. Cows often develop mastitis — an infection of the udders — from rough handling and rumen acidosis from unwholesome food.
Other abuses documented by PETA’s investigator include:
* Calves were tethered with short chains, often without any shelter.
* Workers kicked buffaloes to make them stand. Injured animals were hit with sticks and pulled by their tails.
* Bleeding buffaloes were denied veterinary care.
* Animals were covered in their own faeces.
* Animals lived among heaps of garbage.
* Drinking water was filthy.

but im still going 2 drink milk and eat meat…all meat and milk does not came from those sorts of things….
poor animals =”C
wouldnt anyone like to ask the question why??? why is one in power but powerless to do anything? IF we can get past a lot of issues. this must be a first on the list. These so called ppl that can allow this is basically sick in the head. at least the europe have certain laws that will have to be met by march 2009.
I don’t think that I’ll ever be anything other than a carnivore.
However, there is a right way and a wrong way to do everything.
This is definitely the wrong way.
so many falsities in this dudes story. there is no way an arm can go into a cows uterine tract. the inseminator puts his arm *** of the cow to find and adjust the cervix for the pipette to get thru, and then deposits the *****. This is much safer for the cow than having a 1-ton bull crushing down on her. B
God see’s what you do……… he didn’t put beautiful animals here for you to murder. The things mankind has done sickens me…. It saddens me to think god.. looking down… watching… what a mistake he must think we are to have let his son die for us. People so full of hate, morals gone. Soon nothing will be left but pure filth. The animals are the only ones who should have been save in the flood. My heart brakes for the millions of animals murder every day. The cruelty is unforgivable!!!!
tell every Vegan you know that my mom HATES meat and has never ever willingly eaten it, not even when she craved it when she was pregnant with me. but, sadly, she will eat bakin and corn dogs and sometimes hotdogs, only pig. it’s crazy. she’ll only eat the smartest animal commercially sold for meat in this country.
and: i thought the Cow was revered in India! like the Dog is here! someone who mistreats a dog is a monster here. why’s it different for other creatures?
Sounds very disgusting to me.
i like meat and i agree you cant stop it but kill the fucking thing before you go ripping its organs out you stupid *** dip shits, I’m sure it doesn’t change the quality of the meat if you just fucking put it out of its misery. fucking retards
sorry dude, I disagree
Nothing ‘replaces meat’. It’s like having a bacon sandwich without bread. You need a balance of bread, butter, and dead pig fried in a pan until crispy and oooozzzziiinngggg flavour.
Milk curd from happy cows, taro, breadfruit, jackfruit, and many other foods can replace meat and soy.
No I am not an idiot. I own cows. You see a cow doctor puts their arm in the **** of the cow and at the same time guides the ***** straw and gun into her yoni. One hand in the **** feels the uterus through the lining of the intestine. The other hand injects the ***** straw into the opening of the uterus called the cervix. Also I am a female. So I will never become a father. But I am a mother.
Soy has an unnatural amount of estrogen in it and it is also an enzyme inhibitor which means you should only take fermented soy products.
I am ashamed of being a Hindu after seeing this video. Thank you PeTA
you are an idiot. If they put their hand in cow’s **** and introduce the sperms, how will cow become pregnant. Get your basics right first moron. By the way, are you married? I would really doubt that you will ever become father
What is happening to our Holy Land…This video brought me to tears..Why are Indian forgetting their ethos and copying the West. Although west has advanced technologically they have a long way to go to reach the level of Morality and Righteouness that India espouses…Today’s Indian youth have started consuming alcohol, meat and have become adulterous in the name of becoming modern and advanced.. This will take the country down. We would need another revolution to bring country back to it SPIRIT
Im sorry-is there something wrong with letting the cows get pregnat the old fashioned way-do these people get off on doin this.They would gladly mate twice a year if left alone Im sure.These people are fuckin sickooooos
That milk was not New Zealand milk. The NZ Company is a share holder in the company that is China based, china cow, china milk.
have you forgotten the incident some days back.
in china many children died consuming NZ sourced milk.
and how’ll that help….
Buy your milk that is sourced from New Zealand
was that guy fucken ******* that cow???? who would even choose to do a job
like this anyways
They don’t treat them any better in your country. We hear about this a lot from India because they have a huge problem with their holy cows being killed and tortured.
sick indians
