Are Slaughterhouses Morally Wrong

Lastly, slaughterhouses are morally wrong because people do not take into account the animals emotions or capacity to feel pain. In a deontological view, we as humans should have an obligation to treat these animals with respect, as they are living breathing beings. One’s consciousness should be filled with guilt and shame while hurting or killing the animals at the slaughterhouse. Of course, the shame and guilt create a conflict of interest to the workers because, although some of them may feel these emotions, the workers still allow themselves to act against them. Wether it be for the money, work, or even human nature, workers still end the lives of countless beings.
