Chickens are inquisitive and interesting animals and are thought to be at least as intelligent as dogs or cats. When in natural surroundings, not on factory farms, they form friendships and social hierarchies, recognize one another, love their young, and enjoy a full life, dust bathing, making nests, roosting in trees, and more.
The more than 700 million chickens raised each year for KFC aren't able to do any of these things. They are crammed by the tens of thousands into sheds that stink of ammonia fumes from accumulated waste; they are given barely even room to move (each bird lives in the amount of space equivalent to a standard sheet of paper). They routinely suffer broken bones from being bred to be top heavy, from callous handling (workers roughly grab birds by their legs and stuff them into crates) and from being shackled upside down at slaughterhouses. Chickens are often still fully conscious as their throats are cut or when they are dumped into tanks of scalding hot water to remove their feathers. When theyre killed, chickens are still babies, not yet two months old, out of a natural life span of 10-15 years. for more go to: www.kfccruelty.com

I don't eat there anymore, or any other fast food for that matter. That is so f*cking cruel, the people who do that deserve to die. I hope one day nobody eats any kind of animal anymore, well at least not where they have to kill the animal. That is absolutley disgusting and evil, it should be against the law. I believe that qualifies as animal torture. I want to do the same process to the people who do that to the chickens and other animals.
