As for the soldiers who died in combat, she calls for a stele in homage to “these sensitive beings who lost their lives in terror and agony”. After the fire on a farm on November 2 in Lamballe (Côtes-d'Armor), in which 2,000 piglets and 920 sows perished, the Peta association requested the installation of a memorial at the scene of the disaster.
The association for the defense of animal rights has just written to this effect to the mayor of Lamballe, submitting the text of the commemorative plaque on which one could read: “In memory of the pigs who died in the fire on a neighboring farm . If we were all vegan, this wouldn’t have happened.”
“Everyone can save lives by becoming vegan”
In a press release, Mimi Bekhechi, vice-president of Peta for Europe, is outraged by the fate reserved for pigs, “animals raised and killed for food which often live crowded in dark sheds where they cannot satisfy their needs natural and sometimes never see the light of day until the day they are taken to the slaughterhouse.” “Each and every one of us can save lives, simply by becoming vegan,” she concludes.
The fire which devastated the pig farm occurred in Lamballe, a mecca for pigs in Brittany. This is where Cooperl, the leader in pork production in France, is based. In its three slaughterhouses, the Breton company slaughters nearly 5 million pigs each year.
