Medics Cut Legs Off Live Goats for Training


This video is pretty messed up. As part of their training, Army medics at a base in North Carolina saw the legs off of live goats. The goats are anesthetized, but they are not completely asleep. You can see some of the goats moving around, while others make moaning noises while their legs are getting chopped off. The medics laugh and joke while they dismember the live animals. The Army claims this training is necessary in order to train medics for the rigors of the battlefield, but others say it's not necessary at all. Animal rights groups are angry about this practice and want it stopped.

Geese Tortured to Death to Make Foie Gras

Here is a new video, very sickening, showing geese being fed Foie Gras until they die. Very gross! Basically, geese are force-fed until they are very overweight and then they die. Their livers get very swollen from this death process and this is what you eat as Foie Gras. I am glad they are starting to outlaw this delicacy.
