"You can’t humanely stun an animal when you have a third of a second to do it. The USDA knows this." - Matthew Dominguez. @usdagov.bsky.social proposes faster slaughterhouse line speeds, at the expense of animals & workers. S/O to @thenewlede.bsky.social for covering this. https://bit.ly/4tKhfr3

Bird flu has proven remarkably persistent: since hitting the U.S. in 2022, almost 200 million chickens being culled.

Right now, the Government is entering into trade negotiations with the EU. We must ensure these negotiations do not create barriers to progress towards a #FurFreeBritain. Will you speak up for animals with @fourpawsuk.bsky.social before it's too late? ➡️ action.four-paws.org.uk/page/183384/...

The meaning of words is to be decided not by their use, usefulness, or history, but by their commercial benefit to the most powerful lobby groups. I have a recipe for almond milk in a cookbook from 1226. It has been used as a term in English for hundreds of years. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

PETA & @aaldp-du.bsky.social are filing a lawsuit over MA's anti-wiretapping law, aiming to: 💥 Hold animal abusers accountable 💥 Protect the public's right to know about cruelties 💥 Continue our investigations & MORE! https://www.peta.vg/461j

Animal agriculture only survives by hiding from the public. If they have nothing to hide, let them implement CCTV and drop "ag-gag" laws.

💡 In its new opinion on turkey #welfare, @efsa.europa.eu concludes measures to protect these birds are severely lacking in EU policy. bit.ly/4a0yT29 With over 240 million turkeys being reared in the EU each year, it's vital policy-makers put specific measures in place for their wellbeing. 🦃

Animal testing is being phased out far too slowly. Public revulsion is clear, and so is the science: over 92% of drugs that work in animals fail in humans. This is a moral and scientific failure. #AnimalWelfare #AnimalTesting

“No doctor needs to kill an animal to save a patient,” - Eric Singer, MD www.pcrm.org/news/news-re...

People on this website have their theories as to why the Trump administration is promoting milk but the answer is simple: every administration does this (it usually just doesn’t look like bizarre memes)

We've teamed up with @nonhumanrights.bsky.social to sue Ridglan Farms to protect the dogs that remain. Ridglan must relinquish its license to sell dogs by July 1, 2026. The lawsuit seeks to protect the thousands of dogs that remain from unlawful cruelty. More here www.channel3000.com/news/lawsuit...

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. promised that the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans would look different from years past and they do. The new food pyramid puts red meat at the top, but the guidelines themselves are a bit more confusing, and contradictory.

The ultraprocessed food conversation has well and truly jumped the shark. Now its proponents are opposing fortification, urging us to ignore the nutritional properties of foods, & conflating the extent and purpose of processing. Put this schema out of its misery already. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

Dairy dehumanizes humans and cows alike, and reduces us all when we are complicit. www.vox.com/future-perfe...

For the first time in Europe, researchers detected antibodies against avian influenza in a dairy cow after cats became ill at the facility. This challenges repeated claims that spillover was rare and raises questions about delayed testing and corporate responsibility. youtube.com/shorts/AFL4q...

They just wanna be our friends please don’t send them to the Slaughterhouse. Love them all.

A Wisconsin bill would offer low-interest loans to small dairy farms as consolidation accelerates. But records show major industry groups pushed lawmakers to change the rules so large industrial farms could qualify too. @jmcjmc.bsky.social reports via @investigatemidwest.bsky.social:
