Each year, hundreds of millions of animals are illegally killed, trapped, or trafficked as part of the global wildlife trade industry. In America, the penalty for poaching is typically only a fine of between $5,000 and $10,000 and a maximum sentence of up to two years in prison. Demand that lawmakers do more to dissuade poachers from killing innocent animals.
Farm animals live with the stench of death hanging over them. Some face beatings with shovels and some have their throats slit while still alive. These abuses must be exposed for the world to see.
Costco, one of the largest retail chains in the entire world, has been accused of abusing millions of chickens in the name of profit. These animals are reportedly forced to live in overcrowded sheds, crushed beneath their unnatural weights and unable to properly move, and they are apparently dying agonizing, premature deaths due to untreated illness, injury, and starvation. Demand Costco put an end to this alleged cruel practice.
Justice has been served to the woman who neglected 135 dogs and 23 horses while operating a horrific underground puppy mill. Sign this petition to thank officials for prosecuting the abuser and encourage them to continue fighting for voiceless animals.
Cows on corporate dairy farms are forced to endure endless amounts of suffering. They face constant physical abuse and are artificially impregnated year after year, until eventually being sent off to slaughter. Sign this petition urging Starbucks to stop seemingly endorsing dairy milk by upcharging non-dairy alternatives.
Boiling lobsters, crabs, crayfish, and other crustaceans alive is a cruelty that must end. They are sentient creatures and can feel pain in the same ways as mammals and other animals. Demand that animal welfare laws be changed to protect crustaceans.
Female pigs on factory farms are referred to as “breeding machines,” and are kept in tiny metal cages known as gestation crates where they are repeatedly artificially impregnated. Demand an end to this abusive practice.
