MARYSVILLE (Perry) The
Pennsylvania Veal Producers
Association strongly supports
pending investigations of the
reported death by starvation of 49
veal calves and the debilitation of
another IS calves in Granville
Summit, Pa., according to associa
tion president Ralph Alleman.
“Upon learning of the incident,
another producer, working with
authorities, took possession of the
IS animals to provide emergency
care,” Alleman stated.
The association follows the
humane production practices con
tained in the American Veal Asso
ciaton’s Guide for the Care and
Production of Milk-Fed Veal
Calves. These guidelines require
veal producers to maintain their
livestock in good health and to
comply with all laws relating to
animal welfare.
The individual identified by
reports as responsible for the inci
dent is not a member of the Asso
ciation or the AVA.
