Describing gestation crates as a kind of torture chamber, she showed photos of sows suffering pressure wounds, open ulcers, fused limbs and congestive heart failure after being stuck in crates without the ability to move.

We're hoping to collect a ton of food. [Beau] was a "skeleton zombie," while [Tom] was some kind of reject from Lord of the Rings. Their job was to hide in the shadows and sneak up on hapless visitors. [Frazier] planned to be a "sexy bee," but ended up camouflaged as a pile of leaves so she could blend in with a leaf-covered wall, then pop out at random, causing entire families to lose control of their bodily functions.
