If a dog were treated this way, we’d call it a crime. Because she's a cow, the industry calls it business.

Meet Lucky, she was permanently separated from her mom and left to endure the freezing winds of Winter Storm Fern.

Her body is treated like a machine. 💔

Every meal is an opportunity to help farmed animals by filling our plates with plant-based foods.

New footage from Mercy For Animals reveals the "before and after" of Winter Storm Fern on an Eastern U.S dairy farm.

💔 Cows and their babies remain trapped in crates and open-air pens. They have virtually no protection from the biting, sub-zero winds. Take Action: MercyForAnimals.org/GotMisery

This is a “greased pig scramble” event. 💔

Young pigs, already terrified, were greased in a trailer bed by children as a cheering crowd anticipated the “game.” Children, urged on by the frenzied cheers and music, chased, tackled, and pulled at the limbs of these frightened, screaming young pigs.

Veronika is showing the world what happens when we lead with compassion. By giving her the safety to be herself, she’s proven that cows are far more brilliant than we ever gave them credit for. It's time we rethink how we see them. 🥰🐮

As Winter Storm Fern moves in this weekend, many of us will stay warm indoors. But millions of farmed animals won’t have that choice. They’re left exposed to freezing temperatures, and many are still transported long distances in dangerous weather.

Choosing plant-based is an act of compassion.

Imagine this being your entire world. 💔 For pigs in the global meat industry, factory farms are the darkest corners of our planet—not by chance, but by design. No animal should call this home.

Help fight back by choosing more plant-based proteins.

Mother cows used for dairy endure relentless suffering and brutality. Many become so weak that they can no longer stand or walk, and they ultimately face a terrifying slaughter once their bodies are no longer profitable.

Take action for cows by choosing dairy-free foods.⁠

Behind every mask is a volunteer driven by action. But let’s be real—we’re definitely not mad about the 5-star plating at Feast with the Beasts in Brooklyn.

We are so grateful to our volunteers who show up, speak out, and take action for farmed animals.

From the moment they're born, animals in the meat industry are denied everything that's natural and important to them.

Take a stand for them by choosing more plant-based foods. 🧡

While customers at Bluestone Lane are charged extra for kinder plant-based milk and are served cows' milk without an upcharge, COWS are the ones paying the ultimate price. Tell Bluestone Lane co-founder Nick Stone to do better in 2026 in the comments.

Please leave shrimp off your plate. 💔

Shrimp, are the most-farmed animals in the world. An estimated 440 billion of these animals are farmed and killed each year for human food.

Several countries recognize shrimp as sentient beings. This means they can feel pain, which raises ethical and legal concerns about their treatment in farms.

🚨 Breaking! 📰 New U.S. dietary guidelines are out, with a renewed focus on protein. The good news? Humans don’t need meat to meet their protein needs. Beans, lentils, tofu, nuts, and seeds all deliver the protein our bodies need. 🌱💪 No animals required!
