The Australian egg industry is only driven to address the interests of the animals it produces when consumer concern threatens profitability. When the industry fears sales will drop, it reacts by doing the minimal amount possible to appease consumers whilst maintaining maximum profits. This industry treats layer hens as mere objects, units of production, and this is evidenced by the horrific lives these animals endure from their birth, right through to their deaths.

Cruelty and abuse are inherent to the animal slaughter industry, including meat, dairy, eggs, fur, wool and leather. Much of this cruelty is legal, due to exemptions in animal welfare legislation that specifically permit acts of cruelty towards farmed animals, that would be illegal if performed on dogs or cats.
The only way to truly stop cruelty to farmed animals is to stop eating them. Take the pledge today to leave animals off your plate and live vegan - be part of a growing movement towards a kinder, more sustainable world, and take a stand against industries that harm and exploit animals.
