Land O'Lakes and Challenge Dairy are two of the dairy producers who use milk from calves confined at Mendes. It's time to let them know that this practice is unnecessary -- and unacceptable.The babies are taken soon after birth and shipped away to live by

Noted & Signed. I was number 24,113. More the better. If anyone has had anything to do with cows, let alone calves they would know this is so wrong. So sad. There is no water, just a bucket for food to go in whenever. They are calves, they like to nibble all day. Have mum's milk or water. Sorry, I just hate it.

Beware, a lot of veal ends up in cat/dog food.
The only way out is to stop eating or drinking anything made from cows milk. And you know those cows are so maternial, they suffer, over and over, every year, when their babies are taken away. The least those farmers could do, is give them a brake, and let them keep their babies once a while, before they retire them. But they don't get retirement,when their bodies are all leached out, from overproducing milk and force pregnancies every year, they simply end up at the abottoirs.Most poeple don't even know that cows have to produce a calf,every year, in order to produce milk! Our world is just so sick. I am not enjoying the world anymore.

Go Vegetarian/vegan, that is the only way out!!!

Use orgnic products and research the company before you buy their product. If you can avoid drinking bovine milk, do so. I don't use milk (milk is for babies) except for coffee or cereal(very little, just enough to wet it) and then I buy goat's milk. Remember, it's about supply and demand...the less demand, the less supply! When it becomes unprofitable for manufacturers to continue production, supply will deminish. Boycotting is the best tool we have to challenge industries that inflict suffering...let's exercise it!

Noted and signed. It amazes me that some people can look at this and think "How sick, horrible!!!" and yet still eat meat. I just don't get it.

You want to help these animals in factory farming? There is only one way, for everybody to go VEGAN!!! Don't fool yourself in thinking that because you are eating organic meat or organic milk, you are helping them. It's hypocrit!

I can't bbelieve some of the comments. God gave them legs to walk, leap and run around. They are calves and they should experience their calfhood so to speak. To confine them like is terrible and one reason I became a vegetarian.
