Join us to fight cruelty.

In America alone, 9 billion chickens are raised and slaughtered for food every year. Most live in factory farms. The industry forces these birds to spend their lives crammed together, with little or no natural light.

Join us in fighting to protect these animals’ welfare.

Making factory-farm cruelty a liability

Companies don’t follow laws that aren’t enforced. And prosecutors rarely enforce cruelty laws on factory farms, even when animal protection groups urge them to.

As a result, while several state cruelty laws technically cover farms, factory farms ignore them. Investigations in such states show rampant, unlawful neglect and abuse.

Strategic civil litigation offers a solution.

Chickens are smarter than you think.

Research shows that chickens have much more impressive mental abilities than previously assumed, and are capable of forming socially complex relationships.

“I love chickens. I love spending time with them.... They are delightful, curious, smart and funny; not to mention beautiful and elegant.... Thank you for taking their cause to the courtrooms of America. Make sure no one ignores them ever again.”

— Joyce Tischler, known as the mother of animal law
