They are not permitted to exhibit natural behaviors. Animals that are stressed and over crowded would be more vulnerable to disease. If we want to prevent terrible epidemics like this we need to rethink how we deal with farm animals in the first place.
This sums it up very well. It is intensive farming which is largely to blame. Cruelty bites back on the those who impose it.
