The Turkey

Wishful Thinking


A wild turkey living in the wild as God intended


A festive meal with the pain and suffering "sanitized out."  What are we thankful for?  That this turkey suffered and died for our fleeting pleasure?

Reality

(Turkey - Free Range Myth - 01)  According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the single condition for the term free-range is that birds have access to the outdoors.  This does not mean that the turkeys have free access to pasture land, as can be seen in this photo.  We believe that this is a deceptive practice against the American consumer. In 2004, East Bay Animal Advocates conducted an investigative rescue at a free-range turkey farm in Northern California. The following images reveal the conditions on a free-range farm.
