Questions and Answers
Carol Moon,
Farm Sanctuary

Yet the actual lives of ducks and geese in today's "factory farms" are far from idyllic. Carol Moon, humane educator from Farm Sanctuary, the nation's leading farm animal protection organization, will contrast the natural beauty of ducks and geese with their shocking abuse in meat and foie gras production, including tips on what you can do to help them.
