Part of investigation

A cow that can no longer stand up. The cattle trader kicks her, yanks at her legs, and delivers more than forty electric shocks. When that has no effect, the cow, fully conscious, is dragged away with a shovel. Using hidden cameras, Ongehoord documented the loading and unloading of cows at five locations in the Netherlands. At these facilities, mother cows and their calves are kicked, beaten with sticks, or driven forward with electric shock devices.

De Bruijn Impex also seems to shy away from publicity: no website, no social media, and never in the press. According to the NVWA register, it is a collection point for cattle, sheep, and goats. Ongehoorde filmed the activities in the cattle section for nine days. De Bruijn collaborates with T. Kuiper Transport, the company where Ongehoord filmed lame and abused cows in 2023.
