Blog Entry 10: Research

Since blog entry 9, I have done a bit of research and for my topic I noticed that it might be difficult to make a direct connection between the topics of animal welfare and Food safety. So for my essay I've decided to talk briefly about Animal welfare and food safety and then try to draw the connection between the two topics and try to explain what are the potential dangers of the manner in which factory farms treat their animals and the food those same factories distribute.

Animal welfare has always been a shady topic because most big companies don't want any light to be shed on the way they treat their animals but, people do have somewhat of a understanding the conditions they are kept under. The problem is that these huge corporations have money to back up their cause and often get away with it. For example a gag bill that would make taking pictures, recording or filming of livestock production facilities illegal.
