Animal factories are more prone to infectious diseases due to controlled

environment. Air of the factory raised by mechanical tools and excited animals
contains irritating gases. There is no natural cleansing factor available in this enclosed
building. Factory condition goes on worse and worse with the passage of time and
brings new diseases. Many measures like sterilization of tools, cleansing of factory
and proper medication, use of pesticides are taken to overcome bacteria threat. A good
factory operator tries to provide natural environment to animals. It becomes hard to
provide proper treatment to individual animal due to requirement of mass production.
A proper treatment is required for continuous flow of meat, milk and eggs. In this
modern factory system, animals are reduced to mere source of food. We worship
technology but ignore animals and nature. We will not be able to achieve moral
relations with the natural world until we accept it.
