HBO's programme "Death on a Factory Farm" aired on Monday March 23. It tells the story of a really courageous young man who went undercover on an Ohio pig farm. He documented everything he saw, including the hanging of a pig.

There are details of the programme on the Humane Farming Association's website:

A big thank you to the Humane Farming Association and to HBO for having the courage to air the show.
