Dairies Fire Worker After Undercover Video Shows Calf Abuse
A dairy worker was fired after an undercover video captured employees kicking calves and branding their skulls without anesthetics, following an investigation by the Los Angeles Times.
The video, obtained by the Los Angeles Times, shows workers at a California dairy kicking calves and branding their skulls without painkillers. The dairy, which has not been named publicly, said the employee was terminated after the footage surfaced. Animal welfare advocates have called for stricter enforcement of cruelty laws, while the dairy industry maintains that such practices are isolated and not representative of standard operations.
