Holstein cows are ushered into the centre of a barn which leads to the milking parlour at a dairy farm in Vermont. During the winter months, typically between November and May, they live here indoors.

A fish farmer feeds food pellets to red hybrid tilapia. The fish are raised in floating fish pens at a farm by a river in Thailand.

Red hybrid tilapia converge at the surface of a floating pen, waiting to be fed at a fish farm in Thailand.

A large number of red hybrid tilapia feed on food pellets, in a crowded floating pen at a fish farm in Thailand. A worker in the background tosses a handful of pellets into the water.

A large group of red hybrid tilapia wait to be fed in a densely crowded floating pen at a fish farm in Thailand. Overcrowding is common problem in aquaculture, which can affect the health of the fish being raised.

Workers pick up sedated red hybrid tilapia from a floating pen to be weighed and sorted during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Clove oil is a fast acting sedative that is used to calm fish prior to the harvest, making it easier for workers to handle the fish and minimize damage to them from too much struggling.

Workers sort sedated red hybrid tilapia during the harvest at a fish farm in Thailand. Those fish large enough to be sold are tossed into plastic drums, while the smaller fish are tossed back into floating pens. To deliver to certain supermarket chains, the weight and condition of the fish is strictly regulated, thus sedative is regularly used during the harvest to reduce damage to the fish from their struggling.

Several live Nile tilapia swim in the murky water of a densely crowded tank at a supermarket in Thailand.

A worker tosses a large scoop of food pellets into the floating pen at a red hybrid tilapia farm in Thailand.

Juvenile tilapia swim in the murky water of crowded cement ponds at a fish warehouse in Indonesia. Workers at the facility told investigators that the murkiness is due to anti-bacterial and anti-fungal drugs being added to the water.

A close-up underwater view of a tilapia opening their mouth to grab a fish food pellet floating near the surface inside the murky water of a floating cage on an Indonesian fish farm.

A close-up underwater view of a crowded group of tilapia on an Indonesian fish farm, about to be harvested from the floating cage they live in. Surrounding the fish is a net used to confine the fish in a small area so that they can be transferred to another enclosure.

During a nighttime harvest at an Indonesian milkfish farm, workers wearing protective helmets stand in the water of a fish pond pulling up on a harvesting net. Captured and crowded milkfish jump and struggle trying to flee from confinement within the net. Crowding the fish together deprives them of oxygen and they will eventually suffocate.

A view from above as a worker uses a dip net to deposit juvenile tilapia into a mobile floating cage. The fish have been removed from a transportation tank and are being transferred to a nearby Indonesian fish farm.
