TURLOCK -- Gemperle Farms today accused an animal rights group ofstaging an undercover video showing company workers mistreating hens."We have reviewed the video images claiming to represent ourpractices, and find the accusations to be a staged, vicious attack onour reputable company," Gemperle Farms said in a statement."We are continuing to investigate and now know our employees werecoerced by the activist to engage in behavior that is against our highstandards for hen welfare for the sole purpose of filming asensational video."The video was released last week by Mercy for Animals. An investigatorfor the Chicago-based group got a job fixing cages and machines atGemperle's egg-laying sites in

Delhi and Hilmar, the group said. Thevideo was shot with a hidden camera in January and February, it said.-- full story:http://www.modbee.com/local/story/296524.html
