A bull calf sleeps in a mixture of wet mud and feces inside a cattle fattening yard, also known as an Animal Feeding Operation (AFO). Penned bulls, steers, and oxen live here for approximately 90 days, where they are intensively fed and gain about 300 kilograms of weight before the yard sends them to slaughter. The animals live in their own filth, sleeping in groups amid mud and feces, which in some places is knee-deep, and they have no shelter from the elements. Sub-Saharan Africa, 2022.
