Petaluma Police Dept: Help the Hens at Petaluma Farms
Ask the Petaluma Police to investigate criminal animal cruelty at a massive factory farm where hens are starving to death.
Why is this important?
The Petaluma Police Department has been ignoring criminal animal cruelty at Petaluma Farms for years. This certified "humane," "cage-free" egg supplier to Whole Foods has been exposed for cramming thousands of birds inside of filthy sheds where their stressful environment leads to sickness, feather loss, and even cannibalism. Direct Action Everywhere investigated Petaluma Farms in 2014 and found dead, rotting birds among the living, and recent footage shows nothing has changed. With this recent news, over 150 activists mobilized at Petaluma Farms in July to demand the police help these suffering birds, and they said they would look into the farm and take action by September 1st. Animals are starving to death right now and the longer the Petaluma Police wait to take action, the more animals will die. We need to show them the public does not support animal cruelty and urge them to take action now.
