Pig Cruelty Around 1.3 billion pigs are slaughtered annually for meat worldwide. The majority of these are in East Asia‚ particularly China‚ which rears around half of the world’s pigs.

“All cruelty springs from weakness‚” said Lucius Annaeus Seneca. To me‚ this quote means that cruelty comes out from a person who is feeling weak.
