RE: Photography at the time of the market

Hi,
Thank you for sharing these pictures with us. I'm from the other side of the world, and Europeans are shocked by such images. Animal welfare organizations would shut down such a market here. In your photos, animals sit in steel cages without straw on the floor, without water, and many of the animals look sick. The question is, how long do these animals have to endure in these cages or in this net? How does a chicken feel with so little space, when it actually wants to run around and peck at grains? The suffering must be immense.

Since 2010, cage farming has been banned in Germany. Unfortunately, in areas of poverty, animals are mistreated. I always imagine how I would feel if I had to sit in such a cramped cage, but most poor people lack empathy for other living beings. Sad.
Greetings from Anja
