🐯 New footage from Bervie Zoo shows animals suffering in likely illegal conditions. These tigers are housed in a cramped, barren enclosure that falls far short of the space & stimulation required for them to thrive. Urge authorities to take action 👉 https://t.co/feU5rDKKbz

The CFIA is about to mass-kill 32,000 birds after an avian flu outbreak. It’s not just the ostriches affected by mass-slaughter—since 2021, ~16 MILLION birds have died or been killed in response to the virus. https://t.co/xwLnQy4PKI

Calling out misinformation at The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair 😤 Industry reps try to trick Canadians into thinking farmed animals live happy lives—when they suffer in filthy, crowded factory farms, with many trapped in cages so small they can barely move 👎 #CdnAg #OntAg

“Crowding ostriches into a pen, shooting them in an enclosed space while they’re running around in terror, forcing birds to witness their companions die... undoubtedly would have caused horrific terror & suffering.” — @CamilleLabchuk, ED of Animal Justice https://t.co/NzdJt2whnw

Fur farming is incredibly cruel & likely ILLEGAL under Quebec’s own animal protection laws. It’s time for the Quebec government to finally ban this harmful industry 🦊 #QCpoli https://t.co/LxeglbPOfX

Sobeys’ response to public pressure? Claiming customers want the choice to buy eggs from caged hens. This isn’t choice—it’s corporate backtracking wrapped in PR spin.

SHOCKING: @sobeys is now using Big Tobacco–style PR tactics to excuse selling eggs from caged hens. Canadians deserve better than deceptive marketing—& hens deserve freedom from cruel cages 🐔🚫 https://t.co/CxoUmCsI07

⚠️ Animal Justice believes the CFIA’s mass shooting of hundreds of ostriches in BC likely caused illegal suffering. We’ve filed a formal complaint & are calling for a review of the CFIA’s conduct.

🦊⚠️ Govt docs obtained by @SPCAMontreal show officials admit there’s NO way to farm animals for their fur while complying with Quebec’s animal protection laws. Animals suffer in tiny wire cages, often mutilating themselves from stress. Act now! ➡️ https://t.co/ugHoZHAnxX

8.6 BILLION aquatic animals were killed for food in Canada in 2023—each an individual who valued their life & endured a brutal death 🐟💔 Canada still has NO laws to protect aquatic animals from suffering when they are farmed, fished, or slaughtered. This is unacceptable.

Canada’s fishing industries cause unimaginable suffering for billions of sentient beings every year—with almost no laws to protect them.

Shooting running #ostriches at night, in view of their terrified flockmates, violates the CFIA’s own guidelines & may be criminal animal cruelty ⚠️ We're demanding an investigation into those involved in directing & carrying out the massacre. https://t.co/rQtW9arRfz

Imagine the terror the ostriches felt as they were trapped & shot one by one, in front of their flockmates 💔 The CFIA’s massacre began at nightfall & continued for hours. The fear & suffering these animals endured is heartbreaking & indefensible.
