Birds are being boiled alive. It needs to end! ❘ Ban Live-Shackle Slaughter

TAKE ACTION NOW : https://actnow.thehumaneleague.org/live-shackle-slaughter/ In slaughterhouses across the country, live chickens are slammed into metal shackles by their fragile legs, then dragged through an electrified “stun bath” before an automatic blade cuts their throats. After “bleeding out,” birds’ bodies are submerged into scalding tanks. Due to the fast line speeds and ineffectiveness of the practice, many of the chickens will be improperly stunned or miss the electrified water bath all together and will go through the remaining slaughter process while still conscious, including being boiled alive in scalding tanks meant to remove their feathers. According to the USDA, over half a million chickens drowned in scalding tanks in 2019. That’s 1,400 birds that are boiled alive every day. Ending live-shackling would not only stop the worst abuses faced by chickens in slaughterhouses, it would make conditions far less dangerous for workers, too. For too long, the meat industry has put profits before people and animals, with devastating consequences. Meat industry giants like Tyson Foods, Pilgrim’s Pride, and Sanderson Farms could end these abuses with a simple decision. Demand that they end the practice of live-shackle slaughter in their supply chains. https://actnow.thehumaneleague.org/live-shackle-slaughter/ SUBSCRIBE and SHARE to help spread the word ➡ https://www.youtube.com/c/thehumaneleague/?sub_confirmation=1 FAST ACTION NETWORK: Take digital actions #ForTheAnimals every day ➡ https://thl.link/fan-signup-yt SUPPORT our mission ➡ https://thehumaneleague.org/donate WORK with us ➡ https://thehumaneleague.org/work-with-us FREE COOKBOOK & WEEKLY TIPS ➡ https://eatingveg.org/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- instagram ➡ https://www.instagram.com/thehumanele... facebook ➡ https://www.facebook.com/thehumanelea... twitter ➡ https://twitter.com/TheHumaneLeague?s=17 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Humane League exists to end the abuse of animals raised for food.
