(ANTIMEDIA) Undercover video released on Wednesday by animal rights organization, Mercy for Animals, shows how chickens are treated before being turned into McDonald’s famous Chicken McNuggets.
The graphic footage was
filmed at T&S Farm in Dukedom, Tennessee by an investigator for
Mercy for Animals, who applied for a job at the Tyson Foods-contracted
farm earlier this year.
The covert activist, who worked at T&S in July and
August, captured images of workers beating chickens with nails attached
to makeshift clubs and stepping on the heads of live chickens. One
employee can be heard on video asking, “You don’t work for PETA, do you?” before bludgeoning a chicken to death with a homemade spiked bat.
