No way out: The pregnant cow who was slaughtered anyway

Animal Equality

She walked in pregnant. But she never walked out. The cow moved slowly—belly full, lungs straining. Workers shouted. Shoved her toward the kill floor. They stunned her. Slit her throat. Hoisted her by her hind legs. Her body swung, limp. Then—a twitch. A tiny calf, still curled in her womb, kicked. A worker sliced her open. Pulled him out.
