“California’s largest poultry producer sued for cruelty” by alene

Hello Effective Altruists! I write to let you know that Legal Impact for Chickens is suing California's largest poultry producer, Foster Farms, for animal cruelty. Foster Farms raises and slaughters approximately 290 million chickens per year. LIC's complaint accuses Foster Farms of crushing chickens with forklifts, forcing birds to live among the maggot-covered corpses of their dead flock mates, and kicking and throwing animals. The animal cruelty lawsuit comes on the heels of a damning undercover investigation that LIC funded fellow-nonprofit Animal Outlook to conduct. Learn more here: https://www.legalimpactforchickens.org/foster-farms and read the complaint here: https://www.legalimpactforchickens.org/foster-farms-complaint. Animal cruelty is a crime in California, as in every state. Thank you to the EA Community for making this litigation possible!
