Pigs brutally stabbed with swords on Spanish pig far

February 20, 2012 - Animal Equality has released a shocking video with images filmed at a pig farm in El Escobar, located in Fuente Alamo in the Spanish region of Murcia. The video shows some of the most brutal scenes of violence against animals at farms that their Investigation Team has ever witnessed.

Marco Verduga Vinicio, one of the farm workers who has handed over the footage, has revealed that the animals are bred for the food company El Pozo (according to the farm worker), which also sells its products to the leading supermarket, Morrisons in the United Kingdom and in other countries. In 2010, the United Kingdom imported 16,253 tonnes of pig flesh from Spain, including products such as 'chorizo' from this company.

In 2008 this farm received a ‘Porc d'Or award’  from the meat industry. 

  • Workers hitting pigs on their heads with iron bars, jumping on top of them, kicking them, and posing in front of a camera with the pigs
  • Workers attacking and killing pigs with meter-in-length swords
  • This pig, tied and immobilized, unsuccessfully tries to escape while the workers for several minutes pulls out the piglets. They remove her intestines, liver and other internal organs while she suffers terribly. The animal is left in agony with internal organs spread over the ground until she dies several minutes later
