What are veal crates?
In order to produce veal, calves who would normally still be nursing are taken from their mothers. For the four months before they’re slaughtered, the calves are typically tethered by their necks in crates too narrow for them to turn around or even lie down in comfortably. Prevented from engaging in their natural behaviors or from satisfying basic psychological needs, calves crated for veal suffer immensely.
