Just call it Slaughterhouse 330.
Only unlike Kurt Vonnegut’s classic 1969 novel Slaughterhouse-Five, this slaughter house at Universal Ostrich Farms was not an abandoned one used as a prisoner camp by the Nazis in the Second World War but a culling pen built with hay walls and platforms in 2025 on the very farm where some of these ostriches as old as 35 lived for years.
They are not alive anymore. That pen on the farmland became “the killing field.”
As the sun came up over the valley in Edgewood, British Columbia, evidence appeared from drone videos and images that hopes for a stay of execution for about 330 ostriches did not happen.
What the footage showed were the remnants of a mass execution that was hard to stomach, let alone look at.
