Animals on factory farms are treated like machines. Within days of birth, for example, chickens have their beaks seared off with a hot blade. Male cows and pigs are castrated without painkillers. All of these animals spend their brief lives in crowded and ammonia-filled conditions—many of them so cramped that they can’t even turn around or spread a wing. Get into the holiday spirit by having a heart and going vegetarian.
