“HER FACE IS HALF GONE!”

Mutilated turkey and burn victim, 2016.

DxE found sickening abuse at Jaindl Farms, turkey supplier to the White House and Whole Foods, including birds whose faces were disfigured from debeaking. But this Thanksgiving, activists are turning the tables on violence by taking the Liberation Pledge and saying #NoThanks to animal abuse.

What We Found


What We Found


Mutilation

Baby birds like Avery have their sensitive beaks burned off the moment they are born. Many are left permanently deformed.

STARVEOUT

Mutilation and stress cause millions of birds to simply stop eating. They are trampled to death after they collapse. The industry has a term for this: "starveout."

Slaughter

Weak birds will have their throats snapped - punishment for not growing fast enough. But even those who survive, including Avery, will be killed.
