The animals are caged like this during their four-month-long pregnancy, taken from the gestation crate and put into another crate to give birth, re-impregnated, and then put back into a gestation crate so the cycle can repeat. It's hard to imagine a worse existence.

Several other leading pork companies are actively moving toward more humane systems, but Tyson is lagging far behind. Tyson Foods is one of the nation's leading pork companies, and we need your help to move the company to do the right thing.

Take action today -- tell Tyson that these pigs deserve better.
I am trying to remember....is Tyson the one that McDonalds stopped using after pressure to do so, or was that a different company?
