Emily Deschanel Frequently Heard Pigs Being Slaughtered

Yes, most of us dropped a tiny tear at the news of Bambi’s mother dying, but other than that, unless you grew up vegetarian or on a farm or ever worked in a meat market, you were probably shielded from the horrors of learning how the food on your plate got there.
In contrast, when “Bones” actress Emily Deschanel was growing up, she heard pigs slaughtered regularly.
“I was about 10 years old on an island and they killed the pigs right behind where we lived. And you could hear them screaming. That was a pretty terrible thing to hear when I was so young. And that just kind of sort of started [me] thinking, ‘How can people treat another animal that way and if we can live without doing that then why wouldn’t we live that way?’”
