Quantcast Vegetarian StarRyan Gosling Urges USDA To Ax Cruel Chicken Slaughter Method

Ryan Gosling

Ryan Gosling has written a letter to the US Department of Agriculture, asking the agency to reconsider its approval of a method to kill chickens.

The method involves suffocating the bird with a foam based agent.

PETA says the process can, “take up to 15 minutes and is as traumatic and panic-inducing as killing birds by choking them, strangling them, smothering them, or burying them alive.”

Even a chicken eater doesn’t want the food on his plate to be treated so inhumanely before death.

Gosling wrote in the letter, “If dogs and cats were killed in this way, the person committing these acts would be charged with cruelty to animals.”

Gosling urges the USDA to instead utilize a method already in place in the UK and Europe which renders the bird unconscious with gas.
