We are a nonprofit activist group that aims to have stricter regulations put in place for livestock. We cannot stop the meat industry, but we can make sure that the animals live a comfortable life until the end. It is paramount that the animals live freely, fed correctly with the right nutrients, and experience the least amount of emotional stress as possible. We hold fundraising events, protests,
communicate with political figures, attend town hall meetings, and rallies that inform consumers about the effects stress has on their meat. We have been to many feedlots across the country. These lots are where farmers keep their livestock in very crowded pens. The cows get limited movement/exercise and suffer under their own weight. The chickens are stuffed into tiny coups full of other chickens, stepping in their own waste. They are starved until the last minute and force fed feed with hormones and antibiotics. When animals and humans are stressed they produce cortisol. This cortisol affects the tenderness or toughness of the meat. Enough of it, even consumed, can cause a heart attack. If you wish to help us on our mission, you can volunteer your time! You can help organize events, write letters to congress, attend hall meetings, anyway you can help, we appreciate it greatly!
