Foster Farms Caught Yet Again Torturing Animals

Matt Rice June 22, 2015
On the heels of a
shocking MFA undercover investigation
showing workers torturing chickens at
American Humane Certified Foster Farms, our friends at Compassion Over Killing
have completed an eye-opening investigation inside a Foster Farms turkey
hatchery. The video broke this
morning on CNN
and shows workers mutilating animals without painkillers and
suffocating helpless baby birds in plastic bags.
Here is the CNN story:
Shockingly, American Humane Association—the same
organization that unapologetically gives its “humane stamp of approval to Foster Farms chicken operations, Butterball, and many other
notoriously cruel
factory farms
, is in the process of certifying Foster Farms’ cruel turkey
factory farming practices as “humane.
The AHA program, which covers more than 1 billion animals in
the U.S., is little more than a rubber stamp for some of the most horrific
factory farming practices.
See for yourself in this video narrated by TV legend and
former host of The Price is Right Bob
Barker:

Please join
Bob Barker and MFA
in calling on American Humane Association and Foster
Farms to put an end to blatant animal abuse and adopt truly meaningful
standards to help eliminate some of the worst forms of factory farm cruelty.
And remember, the best way you can help end the needless
suffering of farmed animals is simply to stop eating them. Learn more at ChooseVeg.com.
