I am 24 years old. Throughout my life I have visited The Queens County Farm. There are pictures of me in nursery school petting the pigs and turkeys. It was where I first learned how to appreciate and respect animals.
Ever since the farm changed its no-kill policy and began slaughtering and selling its animals’ meat, I have stopped visiting. It would be like visiting a slaughterhouse. I can’t enjoy being around animals that I am now not sure I will ever see again.
This is just as horrific as if The Bronx Zoo sold the meat of its deer in its gift shop.
