A pig awaits in the stunning box at a slaughterhouse located in Asturias, Spain, November 2023. According to the latest Eurobarometer on Attitudes of Europeans towards Animal Welfare, 67% of the population states that they would like to have more information about the conditions in which animals exploited on farms are kept. However, the opacity surrounding the operations of the livestock industry and its lack of transparency interfere with the consumer's right to make free and informed decisions. *Image obtained during an investigation carried out in Spain for Animal Equality NGO.
