The students learn to debone a chicken and slice cheese. I wonder how much the students learn about the chicken and where the carcass came from and what happens during the life of a chicken. Removing skin and bones from a chicken breast was "slimy and gushy and. And what about cheese? fun" said one (female) child.

Chickens deserve to live humanely. The same goes for pigs and cattle that are exploited and forced to live in substandard conditions. It is no more acceptable to confine 60 hens for their entire lives in a cage that you report is “about the size of a Ford F-150 pickup truck’s flatbed” than it would be to treat 60 cats similarly.

15): We are glad to see an article describing the intensive confinement of egg-laying chickens, but we disagree when it says that animal advocates and consumers are “driving big changes” in the treatment of chickens. At most, chickens will be guaranteed room to spread their wings. Like humans, animals have a right to enjoy life.

From the perspective of the land ethic a herd of cattle, sheep, or pigs is as much or more a ruinous blight on the landscape as a fleet of four-wheel drive off-road vehicles.
