The footage reveals the harsh reality of the dairy industry, where animals must be repeatedly impregnated to continue producing milk. The female babies are raised to join the breeding and milking cycle, while the male babies are considered useless to the industry. This particular farm is owned by millionaire John Gommans, who also owns the Gippy Goat farm (and former cafe), which was subject to a high profile protest by animal activists in late 2018.
This is yet another example of an industry with zero transparency or laws to properly govern it - everything shown in this footage is completely legal under Victoria's animal welfare legislation.

Cruelty and abuse are inherent to the animal slaughter industry, including meat, dairy, eggs, fur, wool and leather. Much of this cruelty is legal, due to exemptions in animal welfare legislation that specifically permit acts of cruelty towards farmed animals, that would be illegal if performed on dogs or cats.
The only way to truly stop cruelty to farmed animals is to stop eating them. Take the pledge today to leave animals off your plate and live vegan - be part of a growing movement towards a kinder, more sustainable world, and take a stand against industries that harm and exploit animals.
