Cody Saltsman has researched the inhumane conditions under which livestock are frequently transported by factory farms. Factory farmed animals often travel long distances in confined spaces that are too small, causing health issues. While regulations say animals can be in transport for 28 hours, there are no limits on how many animals can be in a vehicle. As a result, many pigs and cows are packed too tightly, and over 1 million pigs die each year from conditions like heat, suffocation, or injuries during transport.

This document discusses trends in global aquaculture and fish production. It notes that aquaculture has been the fastest growing form of meat production, increasing at 12.2% annually between 1990 and 2000. However, it also raises some concerns about aquaculture, including nutrient pollution, ecosystem disruption as aquaculture can spread invasive species, disease emergence, and reliance on inputs. The document suggests tapping into natural ecosystem services and avoiding an industrial factory farm model of aquaculture production.

Okay, let's calculate the center of pressure step-by-step:
1) Calculate Lx, Ly for each element using the given dimensions
2) Sum Lx = 6.25 + 9.25 + 7 + 5 + 4.25 + 1 = 32.75
3) Sum Ly = 25 + 7.05 + 12.8 + 12.5 + 4.5 + 1.57 = 63.42
4) X (distance from axis YY) = Sum Lx / Sum L = 32.75 / 32.75 = 2.5
5) Y (distance from axis XX) = Sum Ly / Sum L = 63.42 / 32.75 = 1.94

Farm Animals and Factory Farming
This document provides an overview of farm animals in the United States. It discusses that most farm animals are raised to be killed for meat, though some are kept for other purposes like eggs or wool. It notes that in 2007 there were more farm animals in the US than humans globally. The document then discusses the treatment of various farm animals, including that chickens, pigs, and dairy cows are often intensively confined and productionized. It also outlines some of the health and welfare issues for these animals and notes the minimal regulation and enforcement of humane treatment standards.
Factory Farming
Factory farms confine thousands of animals in crowded and unsanitary conditions, physically mutilate them without painkillers, and transport them long distances without food or water. The mass slaughter of animals in Canada's industrial agriculture system results in cruelty to animals and risks to human and environmental health from pollution and disease. Alternatives to factory farming are needed to end the inhumane treatment of farmed animals.
Vegetarianism
The document discusses the comparative anatomy of humans, herbivores, and carnivores, noting key differences that suggest humans are anatomically similar to herbivores. It then outlines several health, environmental, and ethical reasons for embracing a vegetarian diet, including reducing risks of heart disease and cancer, conserving resources, and avoiding cruelty to animals.
Go Vegan
This document summarizes the cruel conditions animals endure on factory farms. It describes how animals are intensively confined and treated solely as commodities. Chickens, pigs, cows and other animals suffer from overcrowding, physical ailments due to selective breeding for increased production, and lack of proper veterinary care. The document advocates for veganism to avoid supporting this cruel industrialized system and provides information about the organization Animals Australia which works to improve farm animal welfare.

This document discusses the environmental, health, and ethical impacts of eating animal products versus a plant-based diet. It notes that animal agriculture is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, deforestation and species extinction. A plant-based diet requires fewer resources and could feed more people. However, government subsidies encourage overproduction of corn and soy which are fed to livestock. Factory farming practices are described as inhumane. Health guidelines recommend plant-based diets, which studies find reduce risks of chronic diseases. Resources for adopting a vegan diet emphasize fruits, vegetables, grains and legumes.

Pro animal magazine
Cruelty to animals refers to inflicting harm, suffering or pain on non-human animals for purposes other than self-defense. This includes harming animals for amusement or to fulfill sadistic urges. There are differing views on what constitutes cruelty, with some arguing any use of animals for human purposes is acceptable if done humanely, while others argue animals should not be used or treated as property. Laws against cruelty aim to prevent needless harm but may allow killing animals for other purposes such as food.
pets
- Turkeys are raised throughout the world, with around 10 million in Canada, making it a $388 million business. Hens are harvested at 14 weeks and toms at 18 weeks. Common turkey breeds include Broad-breasted White and Broad-breasted Bronze.
- Chicken production is an important source of farm income in Canada, with around 6.39 billion chickens. White Leghorns produce white eggs while hybrids like Rhode Island Red produce brown eggs. Broiler chickens are slaughtered at 35 days when they reach 2.1 kg.
- Turkeys and chickens are important agricultural industries in Canada, with turkeys generating hundreds of millions annually and chickens accounting for 8% of farm cash receipts

Animal cruelty pitch
Animal Hero Foundation provides information on animal issues including animal cruelty, homeless animals, animal testing, endangered species, and puppy mills. Key points include that there are 4-6 million homeless animals in the US in need of homes, natural disasters affect over 250 million people worldwide each year leaving many animals homeless, and puppy mills typically house 65-75 dogs in small wire cages, accumulating waste below. The document urges support for the organization's efforts to help animals.
Animals in Sports
Animal sports in the US include horse racing, greyhound racing, sled dog racing, and rodeos. While some view these as legitimate sports and claim the animals are well cared for, others see issues with lack of choice, mistreatment, overbreeding, and abuse of the animals involved. Problems range from injuries and deaths during events to neglect, lack of veterinary care, and inhumane treatment such as live baiting of rabbits for greyhound training. After their usefulness ends, many animals face neglect, slaughter, or other poor outcomes. The industries are also controversial due to concerns about motivating factors like gambling and money.

The global food supply is being compromised by large corporations prioritizing profits over safety and quality. Trade agreements like NAFTA allow corporate profits to take precedence over protective laws, threatening public health. Major hazards include disease from antibiotic and hormone use on factory farms, which process most of the US food supply. Lobbyists also undermine laws to protect consumers through trade deals. Inadequate transportation and distribution systems further endanger the food supply. To protect lives, consumers must educate themselves and demand safer, more sustainable food practices.
Wildlife
This document summarizes laws and issues related to wildlife management in the United States. It discusses the roles of federal agencies like the USFWS and USDA in regulating hunting, trapping, invasive species control, and international wildlife trade. It also addresses state wildlife agencies' reliance on hunting license fees for funding. Issues around captive wildlife like tigers and wild horses are examined. Laws governing fur labeling and canned hunting are also summarized. The tensions between conservation and animal welfare perspectives in wildlife policy are a recurring theme.
Bugs Better than Beef 22-08-16 Bairnsdale Advertiser Primary Producer Page 1
1) An entomologist named Shasta Claire spoke at a Bairnsdale beef conference and argued that eating insects can provide comparable nutrition to meat while having a smaller environmental impact.
2) Shasta Claire said that insects are high in protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals and that their rearing requires fewer antibiotics and resources than cattle.
3) Shasta Claire also advocated for using dung beetles on farms, saying they can improve soil quality through aeration and drainage for years after being introduced through cow grazing.
Chickenomics Ruling the roost.
- Chicken has become the most popular meat in rich countries, with consumption growing 70% since 1990 as it is cheap and versatile.
- Intensive breeding has produced much larger chickens that require less feed to raise. Today's broiler chickens weigh 4 times as much at 56 days old compared to chickens bred in the 1950s.
- While cheap chicken has benefited consumers, animal welfare groups are concerned that cost-cutting has negatively impacted chickens' living conditions and health. There is growing demand for higher welfare, free-range chicken in response.
Vegans in the UK
There are between 600,000 and 1 million vegans in the UK, mostly young females. Vegans do not consume any animal products including meat, fish, eggs, dairy, honey, fur, leather, silk or wool. The UK has a long history of being a world leader in animal welfare legislation, having passed the first law protecting cattle in 1822 and establishing the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in 1824. Many people adopt a vegan diet and lifestyle in the UK to avoid contributing to animal suffering from standard agricultural practices and for environmental reasons, and there are over 200 vegan companies operating in the country.

Big Red has reached state playoffs numerous times and has won seven state championships and 19 seasons without losing a single game.
Tips for Daily Stretching
Cody Saltsman developed a daily stretching routine after recent surgery to help with recovery as a competitive student athlete. Daily stretching is important for flexibility and preventing stiffness, tightness, muscular imbalances, and injuries that result from sedentary lifestyles of students and those with desk jobs. Experts recommend static stretches held for 10-30 seconds that cause a gentle pull but no pain, with stretching occurring after warming up muscles through activity rather than sitting or lying down for long periods.
Helping Stray and Feral Cats
Cody Saltsman has rescued many abandoned cats and had pets of his own. The document discusses the differences between stray and feral cats. Stray cats were once pets and are more likely to approach humans, while feral cats avoid humans and do not behave like house cats. Stray cats may act wary when captured but can resocialize to humans over time, whereas adult feral cats will never acclimate to humans.

Inhumane Transport Conditions for Livestock
- 1. Inhumane Transport Conditions for Livestock Cody Saltsman
- 2. Inhumane Transport Conditions for Livestock An animal lover and animal rights activist, Cody Saltsman has researched the inhumane conditions under which factory farms frequently transport their livestock. Cody Saltsman has worked to boycott these companies and to support organizations that fight for these animals.
- 3. Inhumane Transport Conditions for Livestock At factory farms, known in the industry as confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs), farm animals often travel to their deaths in confined spaces so tight that they suffer severe health problems. Although the United States Department of Agriculture provides farmers with a variety of guides to transport animals securely, official federal legislation only stipulates that animals can only be in a specific vehicle for 28 hours. This law does not regulate how many animals can go into a particular vehicle, which means that many factory-farmed pigs and cows travel to their deaths packed in much too tightly .
- 4. Inhumane Transport Conditions for Livestock A 2006 report showed that at least 1 million pigs each year die from the inhumane conditions of transport. Some die from extremes of temperature, while others suffocate or experience severe internal injuries from being so tightly packed on the trucks. Similarly, factory farms may load up to 45 head of cattle onto a single 18-wheel truck, in which they are exposed to the elements and their own waste.
