Cruelty of pardoning turkeys...
#1
Every year, in recent history, the President pardons a turkey or two for the holidays as a show of benevolence, but is it?

The turkeys being pardoned are meat birds, bred to grow fast al large, and then butchered at a point. If they are allowed to continue to grow, their bodies begin to fail them due to the rapid growth and mass weighing on an under developed frame and organ system. They are miserable and die a slow, painful death if not harvested as the breed is intended to be.

They live in misery with broken legs due to their even increasing weight and have food and water brought to them so they can continue living in agony.

No magical farm of hundreds of pardoned turkeys exists. Living beyond a 12 to 24 months is a rarity.

Due to their physical characteristics and shortcomings, most broad breasted bronze and white turkeys have been artificially inseminated since the 1960's.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
