00:00These images were shot in the Aveyron in January-February 2020, at the beginning of the year.

00:25They show the hidden side of the Roquefort,

00:28since we can see how the lambs were raised and fattened,

00:35and how they were killed in a slaughterhouse four months later.

01:25This slaughterhouse had already been controlled in 2016 by the veterinary services,

01:33and it was a horror.

01:35Four years later, nothing has changed.

01:37We are already asking for the immediate closure of this slaughterhouse,

01:41since it cannot continue to operate in these conditions,

01:44outside of any regulations.

01:46We are also asking the Roquefort farm to take responsibility,

01:49since the lambs that are born in this farm are inseparable from the milk production.

01:55We are therefore asking that the farm add an obligation to open to the open air for the lambs.

02:02We have to get out of intensive farming,

02:20and for us consumers, dairy products are not trivial.

02:23We cannot dissociate meat from dairy products,

02:27because when we consume cheese, milk, we also feed this line of meat,

02:33we also feed animals in intensive farming, in slaughterhouses.

02:36So we have to try as much as possible to vegetalize our food.

02:40This is the only solution to save this terrible life for these lambs.
