COK Compassion Over Killing
December 2017
Here are just a few quick highlights from COK's work in 2017:
- When the New York Times ran a powerful, exclusive story about our
investigation, more than 12 million people got a glimpse, for the first
time ever, inside a US lamb slaughterhouse.
- An incredible 75% of VegPledgers who joined COK's VegWeek campaign
report now being vegetarian or vegan.
- Our first-of-its-kind investigation of broiler breeder factory farms
supplying Tyson Foods in 2016 prompted unprecedented cruelty charges and
convictions this year.
- COK's newest investigation exposing cruelty at a factory farm
contractor for Tyson, was featured in a hard-hitting Washington Post
exclusive, prompted the poultry giant to cut ties with its supplier,
Atlantic Farm.
- After thousands signed our petition asking Tyson to, among other
things, move toward plant-based proteins, Tyson did just that:
increasing its investment in plant-based company Beyond Meat.
- Our DC VegFest, the East Coast's largest vegan festival, shined with
more than 20,000 smiles!
A new year is just around the corner and we're forging ahead, building
upon the momentum of all we've been able to achieve with you in 2017.
