Mercy For Animals’ most recent pig farm investigation reveals mother pigs suffering from painful, bloody prolapses—when a pig’s rectum, vagina, or uterus slips out of place and hangs outside her body. These shocking findings expose the dire conditions and inhumane treatment pigs endure, highlighting the urgent need for regulatory reform and better enforcement of animal welfare standards. Please join us by urging your representative to support the Pigs and Public Health Act, which would create real, enforceable standards to protect pigs! Link below. P.S. Remember, the best way to help pigs and other farmed animals is to leave them off your plate. bit.ly/DownedPigs #PPHA #PigsAndPublicHealthAct #UndercoverInvestigation #Investigation

Our investigator documented mother pigs with bloody, painful prolapses being slapped, kneed, and hit with paddles and having their hair pulled until they stood and walked. It’s time for change. Urge your representative to support the Pigs and Public Health Act, which would create real, enforceable standards to protect pigs! Link below. You can also make a difference simply by eating more plant-based foods. https://bit.ly/downedpigs #MercyForAnimals #PPHA #PigsAndPublicHealthAct #Vegan #PlantBased

We are thrilled to share that Leah Garcés, CEO and President of Mercy For Animals and founder of The Transfarmation Project™, delivered an inspiring keynote address at Charlotte VegFest! Leah Garcés presented her groundbreaking new book, "Transfarmation: The Movement to Free Us From Factory Farming." She then took the audience on a powerful journey through the hidden world of industrial animal agriculture, sharing compelling stories of resilience, transformation, and hope. From struggling farmers finding new purpose to courageous workers exposing industry secrets, and even the touching tale of Felix, a rescued pig discovering love and family, Leah weaves a narrative that challenges our perceptions and inspires change. This isn't just a talk about the problems of factory farming – it's an invitation to reimagine our food system and our relationship with animals, workers, and the environment. Listen and share the full talk below. https://lnkd.in/gYHKbJwg

We refuse to let animal agriculture be left out of climate conversations! 🌏🌱 Mercy For Animals’ policy team dropped hard facts at LA Climate Week and Climate Week NYC, diving into the link between animal agriculture and climate change and explaining how we’re working with local governments to push for plant-forward policies. This includes helping the City of West Hollywood pass a resolution this year requiring that food and other refreshments offered at city-sponsored events and meetings be plant-based by default!
