Large Confined Animal Feeding Operations

When many Americans think of farm animals, they picture cattle munching grass on rolling pastures, chickens pecking on the ground outside of picturesque red barns, and pigs gobbling down food at the trough.

However, this is definately not the case as I learned today when I read this article about Confined Animal Feeding Operations. I find what is going on, disgusting and wrong, but if you want to form your own opinions follow the link bellow.

I completely agree that the way we are raising animals for food is wrong. They are confined in very small spaces, thus forcing them to walk arund in their own feces. You can imagine all the bacteria that could contaminate our food.
