Free-Range Poultry & Eggs: Humane Alternatives to Factory Farm Products?
“Free-range” evokes a positive image of chickens and turkeys living outdoors with plenty of fresh air, sunshine and open space to roam in.
“Cage-free” and “organic” convey a similar impression of birds living “free” as nature intended. What are the realities
behind “free-range,” “cage-free” and “organic” labels? – Karen Davis, PhD

What Everyone Needs to Know About Feather & Down Products
Many people think feather products come from feathers that fall naturally off the bodies of birds. Learn the realities of the industrial feather and down
trade, including how this trade is linked to the production of foie gras and what you can do to avoid feather products when making hotel reservations,
buying winter clothing, and choosing jewelry. – Karen Davis, PhD

“Don’t Gobble Me!” Turkeys: Who Are They?
The turkey is America’s unofficial national bird, yet most people know little or nothing about turkeys, who are ritually portrayed by the media each
year as figures of fun and Thanksgiving dinner. Through my visual presentation I will replace misleading stereotypes with fascinating facts. – Karen
