In an effort the give consumers,
media and others interested in animal welfare
in the meat industry accurate information about
how animals are handled and slaughtered in U.S.
meat packing plants, AMI has created both print
and video tours of typical, large beef and pork
plants. World renowned animal welfare expert
Dr. Temple Grandin, professor of animal science
at Colorado State University and subject of the
Emmy-award winning film Temple Grandin,
was on site for the filming of the videos and
narrates the tours. She also answers commonly
asked questions in the brochure, which may be
downloaded or requested by mail at
publicaffairs@meatami.com.
It is the meat industry’s sincere hope that
these videos will help give consumers who want
to know more about meat processing the
information they seek. We welcome your
comments and questions.
