Many people seem to have the impression that meat of a bird is healthier than that of fellow mammals like cows and pigs, and therefore eating chicken preferentially. Also, these days there are people who avoid beef for environmental reasons, but continue to consume chicken, even though chicken clearly has significantly higher environmental impacts than plant protein.

We’ve launched a petition to reduce the suffering of (broiler) chickens who are made into “Japanese chicken”. https://www.change.org/savechickens As a result of severe selective breeding for weight gain, 1/4 of the broilers are said to live under chronic pain 1/3 of their lives. Because they grow so fast, even if they aren’t slaughtered for meat, they are said to not live long. The chickens, who get killed only 40-50 days after birth, spend their entire lives inside. With their growing weights, the poultry shack becomes increasingly crowded, and their bodies get dirtier without being able to sandbathe.
