Did you know, every year, on the summer solstice, thousands of dogs are rounded up to be eaten in Yulin, China as part of a Dog Meat Festival? We believe that this cruel “festival” has no place in the 21st century.

Since the race began in 1973, at least 140 dogs have died during the event, because of injuries and strain from overwork. But even off-season, sled dogs can endure cruel conditions: those that are kept in unregulated commercial kennels are too often tethered on short chains, unable to play or even move freely, forced to eat where they defecate. At these nightmare kennels, when a dog is no longer profitable, it is often destroyed.

These investigations show hundreds of thousands of birds crammed into filthy, windowless sheds and forced to live for weeks in their own waste and toxic ammonia fumes. The chickens are bred to grow so fast they become crippled under their own weight and frequently die from heart attacks and organ failure.
On the farm, Tyson workers were caught on hidden camera violently clubbing animals to death, breaking their necks, and leaving severely sick and injured animals to die without food or water. At the slaughterhouse, Tyson workers were even caught ripping the heads off of live birds after violently slamming them upside down into metal shackles.
