A Vermont slaughterhouse has been temporarily shut down after an undercover investigation by the Humane Society of the United States exposed workers mistreating veal calves. The Humane Society obtained disturbing video that showed veal calves being “kicked, slapped and repeatedly shocked with electric prods and subjected to other mistreatment.” On Friday, the US Agriculture Department and the Vermont state agriculture agency pulled operating licenses for the plant, Bushway Packing of Grand Isle, Vermont.
