“SHE'S TRAPPED IN THE WIRE!”

Join the DxE Open Rescue team as we rescue a little bird named Ava. Featured at the Sundance Film Festival.

Cage Free Fraud

In both caged and cage-free barns, birds at this Whole Foods supplier were forced to endure filthy conditions and intensive confinement.

Mutilated and Mangled

Ava and other birds at the farm faced abuse so horrendous that many were unable to eat or walk. Ava’s feet were so grotesquely deformed that they looked like pancakes. 

Sickness Unto Death

Starving and unable to stand, Ava and thousands of other birds were on the brink of death. Until DxE arrived.  

Safety

For the first time in her life, Ava’s life is free of constant fear. She has access to food and water, and will never be trampled on again.

Freedom

Ava lived her entire life in a cage. But now, even with her disabled feet, she ranges many acres on a beautiful sanctuary. She loves to peck at anything green!

Happiness

Ava never knew friendship or experienced new foods or warm baths. For the rest of her life, she’ll experience the joy that every animal deserves.
