Subject: Downed Animals on Factory Farms

I am writing to request that the sick and weak animals on factory farms, not be
transfered or sold.
The transfering process is cruel and inhumane, adding suffering to the already
distraught animals.
We have no right to treat other living creatures in this manner.  It is bad
enough that we breed these
poor souls for our benefit, but they should not have to endure additional
suffering.  Please, support
the petition filed by Farm Sanctuary that prohibits the slaughter of these
downed animals.


Respectfully Yours,
