This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition To implement ethical and humane treatment of cows and calves in UK dairy farms.
Dairy cows are constantly impregnated, their calves taken from them, the psychological distress of the treatment is clear to see. Stop calves being taken away from their Mothers, stop branding and dehorning. Educate the public on and make more available dairy alternatives.
More details
The Dairy industry currently is abusive to cows, their calves and bulls. As a country of animal lovers and ethically minded people, being humane should be a given. Causing the psychological distress that current farming practices does is pure animal cruelty. Cows are seen as sentient beings, capable of feeling pain, having conscious thought. As a people, it’s time we stood up and stopped these barbaric practices.
