A day following the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s mass slaughter of a healthy herd of ostriches in Edgewood, B.C., I interviewed supporters of Universal Ostrich Farms who were still reeling for the traumatic event.
While the CFIA claims their method of herding the fast-running birds into a kill pen and having hired marksmen elevated and metres away, repeatedly open fire at the flock was “appropriate and humane,” the supporters describe the event as anything but.
Just days ago, although seized by the state, the prehistoric creatures were healthy and asymptomatic since a sickness passed through their herd late last year.
