New DVD! Virgil Butler’s “Inside Tyson’s Hell”
58:35 minutes. $15 includes shipping.

Virgil Butler was a Tyson chicken slaughterhouse worker turned animal activist. Virgil documented the horrific treatment of chickens that he witnessed every night while working at the Tyson chicken slaughterhouse in Grannis, Arkansas from 1997 to 2002. He changed his life completely, speaking out boldly on behalf of chickens and against the terrible abuse they suffer, at considerable expense to himself in a region dominated by Tyson Foods.

Virgil and his wife Laura’s highly acclaimed web blog, www.cyberactivist.blogspot..com, documents his slaughterhouse experience, educating readers worldwide.

Virgil’s detailed account of what goes on inside chicken slaughter plants has been an indispensable contribution to animal advocacy organizations working to reduce the suffering of chickens and promote a compassionate lifestyle. “Inside Tyson’s Hell: Why I Got Out of the Chicken Slaughtering Business” is perfect for public access television and other forums.

This moving and delightful film is all about the thinking and feeling side of farmed animals. At United Poultry Concerns sanctuary, for example, founder Karen Davis describes chickens’ zest for life and their extensive communication systems and family life. Jeffrey Masson, best-selling author of The Pig Who Sang to the Moon, leads viewers through his personal journey while writing his beautiful book, into the sentient, emotional lives of farmed animals at sanctuaries including United Poultry Concerns, Animal Place, Farm Sanctuary, and Wilderness Ranch. You meet the animals along with people who had a change of heart, and experts in animal behavior. This film, which has aired numerous times on PBS prime time, is a great way to educate family and friends about the inner lives of farmed animals without grueling images of factory farming. The animals in this film were rescued. 52 min. Color. DVD and VHS. $20 (includes shipping)

Inside a Live Poultry Market
By United Poultry Concerns

This new educational video takes you inside a live animal market in New York City where you see birds and rabbits, adults and children. Live markets are where many “free-range” chickens, ducks and other birds end up. At the market, you occasionally hear the videographer talking in an upbeat way, in order to obtain the footage without revealing her purpose. At the end you see some birds she managed to rescue from the market. An alternative to “factory farming”? Watch and decide.

Behavior of Rescued Factory-Farmed Chickens in a Sanctuary Setting
By United Poultry Concerns

Some people believe that birds bred for factory farming have lost their natural instincts and are content to live in crowded, filthy, unstimulating cages and buildings. This video shows chickens, turkeys, and ducks at UPC’s sanctuary racing out of their house to start enjoying their day – they pounce on lettuce, dustbathe, scratch for food, preen, socialize, and roost on perches at night.

45 Days: The Life and Death of a Broiler Chicken

New Documentary!
A gripping 12-minute documentary film on COK’s week-by-week investigation into the U.S. broiler chicken industry, from hatching and factory-farm life to slaughter and packaging. $10

Over half a million ducks are confined, tortured, and slaughtered on factory farms each year in the United States to produce the gourmet cruelty, foie gras (fattened liver). Just two companies are responsible for all this suffering - Hudson Valley Foie Gras in New York and Sonoma Foie Gras in California. Confined in crowded pens and tiny isolation cages, and force fed 3 times a day to bloat their livers to the diseased condition known as hepatic lipidosis, these ducks suffer unseen. GourmetCruelty.com takes you behind the closed doors of the U.S. foie gras industry, exposing the daily pain and torture inherent in foie gras production.

Over the course of its yearlong investigation (2002-2003), GourmetCruelty.com investigators were able to rescue fifteen of these long suffering birds. Delicacy of Despair is the haunting portrait of the tens of thousands of ducks who are left behind and the fifteen who found freedom .
