PETITION A SIGNER EN BLEU PLUS BAS ET VIDEO
The secret ingredient in McDonald’s
Chicken McNuggets is brutal animal cruelty.
That’s the finding of a new MFA
undercover investigation at a McDonald’s Chicken McNugget
supplier—Tyson Foods—that exposed horrific animal abuse,
including:
- Birds painfully beaten, stabbed, and impaled on makeshift clubs spiked with nails and then thrown into buckets to slowly die
- Factory farm owners stepping on the heads of live chickens and then pulling their wings or bodies to break their necks
- Chickens bred to grow so fast they became crippled under their own weight and frequently died from organ failure
- Hundreds of thousands of birds crammed into filthy, windowless sheds forced to live for weeks in their own waste
After six short weeks, the surviving
birds are grabbed by their legs, wings, and necks and violently
slammed into transport crates—often suffering broken bones in the
process—and trucked to slaughter.
You may remember that last month we
exposed unimaginable animal abuse at another Tyson factory farm. As
shocking as it is, cruelty and violence run rampant in the poultry
industry. There are no federal laws to protect chickens during their
lives on factory farms, and most states specifically exclude chickens
from anti-cruelty laws.
That’s why it is so important for
McDonald’s to implement meaningful animal welfare policies and
oversight at its supplier farms. As the world’s largest fast-food
chain and a top customer to Tyson Foods, McDonald’s has both the
power and ethical responsibility to prevent egregious cruelty to
millions of animals.
Please, take a moment to sign our
petition calling on McDonald’s to stop unconscionable animal abuse
in its supply chain. Then please share the hidden-camera video with
friends and encourage them to take action too.
And remember, as individual consumers
who care about animals, the most powerful choice we can make is to
leave chickens and other animals off our plates.
Sincerely,
 |
