Factory farm animals are treated inhumanely. The term "cage-free" only means animals are not in individual cages. Most of them are enclosed in tight, dirty spaces.
I decided to use my Colorado Trail thru-hike to raise money for The Humane Society of the United States. My goal is to raise $500, which will help put an end to factory farm animal cruelty. https://www.humanesociety.org/

But beware: It's tragic and hard to watch. Please care. Together we can contribute to stopping these practices. Thank you! less
