Picture
Submission - Unscrambled: There are 11 million hens in battery cages producing eggs in Australia. They are enclosed in cages smaller than the black area on this Lino print. These 11 million hens go without the five freedoms that free range hens enjoy - freedom from hunger and thirst, freedom from discomfort, freedom from pain, injury or disease, freedom to express normal behaviour, and freedom from fear and distress. All because of the freedom of the consumer to choose cost and convenience over compassion.

You can find more about layer hen welfare here.

WINNER: Unscrambled won People's Choice Award
