Petition updateTyson Foods: Stop Crippling Birds with Rapid Growth!ACT NOW: Tell Tyson Foods that consumers aren’t “gullible”—They’re tired of Tyson’s torture!
Animal Outlook
Jan 17, 2018 — TODAY: Email Tyson Foods’ Chief Customer Officer to tell the company that consumers aren’t “gullible”—They’re choosing not to support the routine violence and systemic suffering they see documented in the factory farming industry and demanding change! (Use our sample email below.) Speaking to a University of Nebraska-Lincoln audience last week, former CEO and current consultant for Tyson Foods, Donnie Smith, called consumers “gullible” to criticism of farm practices. Time and time again, undercover footage and numerous studies have revealed the devastating effects of animal agriculture on communities, the environment, and animals. But, according to Smith, American consumers “have no idea how their food gets to their table.” Yet Tyson has built a multi-billion-dollar business that’s dependent upon keeping millions of these very consumers in the dark about the horrific suffering behind the closed doors of its factory farms and slaughterhouses. And as Compassion Over Killing’s recent investigation inside a Tyson contractor revealed, birds suffer egregious abuse and are bred to grow so unnaturally large, so quickly that their fragile legs often collapse under their morbidly obese bodies—all so Tyson can turn a profit by churning out cheap, cruelly produced meat. Join us TODAY in telling the poultry giant that consumers have had enough! Simply email Chief Customer Officer Scott Rouse at scott.rouse@tyson.com using our sample text below (or your own polite message): SAMPLE EMAIL: Subject line: Consumers aren’t gullible — They’re tired of Tyson’s torture! Body: Dear Mr. Rouse, I was shocked that former CEO and Tyson consultant Donnie Smith recently accused fellow consumers like me of being “gullible” for believing the farmed animal abuse we’ve seen documented—yet Tyson continues to rely on this apparent gullibility to keep consumers in the dark about the suffering behind closed doors of its factory farms and slaughterhouses. A recent Compassion Over Killing investigation revealed that birds are subjected to egregious abuse and are bred to grow so unnaturally large, so quickly that their fragile legs often collapse under their morbidly obese bodies—all so your company can turn a profit. On the heels of this investigation, more than 225,000 consumers have already urged you to end rapid growth of birds once and for all and to become a true food industry leader by continuing to shift toward cruelty-free plant protein. I hope you will listen to these informed consumers and create meaningful change for the chickens raised and killed by your company. Thank you. Sincerely, [Your name] Thank you for helping us create change for chickens, and please email info@cok.net with any response you get from the company!
