Traveling the rural Maharashtra on previous days, every village had its share of small, slim and long-legged domestic chickens crossing in front of us, not unlike this wild cousin at all. Nowhere in India have I seen broiler horror-chicken like those sold in supermarkets back home. The morning is cold, much colder than we expected.

Dogs seem like pretty hardy animals for the most part, perfectly capable of eating all sorts of foods. You should avoid feeding your dog the following foods. Your dog should stay away from avocados, grapes, raisins, persimmons, peaches, and plums. Grapes and raisins have been linked to kidney failure in dogs.

It's impersonal and hideously ugly and the animals suffer greatly. However, the solution they have created, which harkens back to before industrialized agriculture, is simply to still raise animals for their flesh and secretions, and for profit, but to do it the old-fashioned way.
