PETA SUES ON BEHALF OF FARM ANIMALS

People for the Ethical Treatment ofAnimals (PETA, www.peta.org) recently filed a landmark lawsuit in anattempt to force the US government to implement humane standards forthe care and handling of animals on factory farms. The animal rightsorganization says the government has never issued any regulations toprotect animals “throughout their horrific lives on factory farms.”Burger King, Wendy’s and McDonald’s now demand better conditions forthe animals they “use,” but a PETA press release says the factoryfarms are fighting the lawsuit “every inch of the way” and that theyeven want to reverse the standards demanded by the major fast foodchains.
