Arriving at Lilydale...

New undercover footage obtained by Mercy For Animals provides a shocking look behind the scenes at a Lilydale slaughterhouse in Canada. The disturbing hidden-camera footage shows turkeys painfully shackled upside down, shocked with electricity, cut open, and even scalded in vats of hot water - all while still alive and able to feel pain.

Some of what the investigation showed:

  • Workers rip turkeys out of transport crates and violently shackle them upside down on the slaughter line.
    torturing turkeys

  • Severely sick and injured turkeys are slaughtered along with other birds intended for human consumption.
