Pheasant and partridge shooting
Every year in Britain, some 35 million pheasants and millions more partridges are mass produced inside hatcheries and rearing sheds. From the sheds, they are moved to fattening pens before being released to serve as feathered targets for shooters.
The ‘game’ bird industry is where factory farming meets a live shooting gallery. The suffering experienced by these birds while they are being fattened for the kill, and as they repeatedly run the gauntlet of the guns, cannot plausibly be justified.
