The Global Animal Partnership Fraud

“I don’t want to see any more.” That’s one grocery shopper’s reaction to footage that exposes practices allowed at the farms and slaughterhouses behind those “animal welfare certified” labels found at Whole Foods. PETA’s new video spares viewers from the graphic imagery, but shows Whole Foods customers wincing, turning away, and refusing to look as they’re shown shots of terrified pigs crammed into filthy sheds, injured and dying chickens, workers forcibly impregnating cows, and other horrors.

The Global Animal Partnership allows meat, egg, and dairy companies to slap misleading “animal welfare certified” labels on their “products”—even though multiple investigations from different groups over many years have documented widespread and systemic cruelty and suffering at many of the certified facilities.
