Slaughtering of X15
The pictures on this video are neither nice nor enjoyable. It´s the slaughtering of a pig. A hundred percent legal – a hundred percent „usual“. Every day numberless pigs worldwide are killed in this way or even more cruel ways. The video is about a pig called X15; this pig was accompanied and his life [...]
Jackpot is free to live!
In contrast to X15, who had to die because people want to eat him, Jackpot is allowed to live on in the animal shelter of Schabenreith. Watch an up-to-date video of lucky Jackpot.
From mast into the truck
Before pigs can be transported and slaughtered afterwards, they have to be chased from the cove, where they have been fattened, to the truck. In this manner it was necessary to „assist“ X15 too.
X15 and his brothers and sisters shortly before slaughtering
We visited X15 once again, before he will be killed in three days. His daily routine in the mast is the same as usual: feeding, chinky floor and no possibility to spend time outside.

Furthermore he gives reasons for calling the pig-slaughter en masse in Egypt “cruel murder”. DISCLAIMER: PIG-VISION is a controversial project. We want to show consumers the dimension [...]

Feed, feed, feed,…
… this is the motto of X15 an the other pigs, which are in the mast already for some days now. The four to five months, which it takes to fatten an average pig in Austria, mean to gain weight from something over 30 kg to about 110 kg.
X15 transferred from weaning to rearing
After the first three to four weeks with their mother, the pigs stay for two more months in the so called weaning. After that they are transferred to rearing and determined to be carried to the slaughterhouse and finally slaughtered four to five months later.
