Fish Skinned Alive in Texas

Fish Skinned Alive in Texas

The Issue

Mercy For Animals has released hidden camera footage shot at "Catfish Corner" in Mesquite, where fish are skinned and dismembered while alive. The graphic footage shows workers skinning, slicing, and tearing the heads off of live and fully conscious catfish.

The are no laws that protect fish from cruelty and abuse. Please ask the Texas House and Senate to introduce new legislation to prohibit the skinning and dismembering of live animals.
