Warning:

What you'll see in these pages are graphic pictures of animal slaughter.

For these farmers, this is a way of life -- the circle starts again.
   

Statement:

We are story-telling photo-documentarians. We provide these images as part of our work to illuminate the millennia old traditions of landed peasants. 

Dealing with life, death and suffering, as these images do, they are likely to stir strong emotions in our viewers. Before judging their lives or our intentions, we invite you to explore these more thoroughly at our Romania Site

November 1999:

Chop chop   

It's a quick chop to the neck and the body tries to fly away for almost a minute.

Chicken murderer   

   

Our family saw this picture and dubbed Petru 'chicken criminal.'

   

   

   

   

 

Dressing bowl   

Body in its bowl.

Boiling water to loosen the feathers   

   

   

Boiling water loosens the feathers.

   

   

Ripping off the feathers   

   

   

   

And the feathers get ripped out by Petru's hardened criminal hands.

Checking it out   

   

They never could explain for us what Maria was looking for.

   

   

Done
