Go Vegan for them

Every year, nearly 8 billion male chicks are culled by the global egg industry — killed within hours of hatching because they can't lay eggs and cost too much to raise for meat.

Our new report, Nearly Eight Billion Per Year And Counting, is the first to ground that figure in a transparent, replicable method: laying-flock data from FAOSTAT across 176 countries and six years. The total rose about 11% between 2019 and 2024, and roughly 70% of culling now happens in Asia, where nearly all the growth is concentrated.

The encouraging news is that a solution is already scaling. In-ovo sexing — which identifies a chick's sex inside the egg before it hatches — now covers about 40% of the E.U.'s laying hens and adds under one cent per egg. Public support is strong: once people learn that culling happens, 73% say the industry should find alternatives.

The report offers six concrete recommendations for advocates, funders, and industry, including making an E.U.-wide ban the flagship legislative target and closing the awareness gap.

Stop Wearing Leather.

This Sunday, I completed Week 228 of #FastAgainstAnimalAbuse...standing in solidarity with Animals who are exploited, harmed and killed for human use.

Leather is not just a material. It was someone’s skin.

We don’t need to wear animals to look good.

Repost from: Last Chance for Animals (LCA)

🚨100 DAYS. NO ANSWERS. NO ACCOUNTABILITY. YORK UNIVERSITY REMAINS SILENT.🚨

It has been 100 days since LCA exposed the suffering of nine rhesus macaques used in neuroscience research at York University. Yet York University remains silent and has failed to take accountability for the suffering documented in the investigation.

The investigation exposed macaques suffering from cranial implants, social isolation, restraint collars, and water deprivation.

💔SOME OF THE MACAQUES HAVE BEEN SUFFERING AT YORK FOR 17 YEARS.💔

LCA continues to call on York University to end its primate research, surrender the macaques to a sanctuary, and prioritize the use and development of non-animal methods.

➡️100 DAYS OF SILENCE IS 100 DAYS TOO LONG.⬅️

**Organization:** Clean Meat Alliance

**Description:** Our main current focus (and grant application target) is to find unconventional funding for alternative proteins through a new medium: games. A successful mobile game, Treat: Play and Impact Real Animals, works by sending chewy shipments to companion animal shelters as the user plays. We are building a similar application called Foggy Farm that funds sanctuary animals, with the goal of siphoning a significant amount of revenue to cultivated meat research and other effective animal charities (GFI, Innovate Animal Ag, etc.). Since the game is mass appeal, the focus won’t directly be on meat or factory farming, but rather serve as a way to support sanctuaries and alternative protein research simultaneously.

Much of the alpha version of the game is complete except for the most important mode, roll mode. We need two engineers/developers to help completion, and implement some of the more complicated details (playstore integration, in game purchases, food shipments, etc.). Here is the design document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1heG6cxmZZhXMQu9y5l95079r6rPAH2CT4n6IEkBrmrI/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.fhoku3e8w4u0

**Duration:** Long-term (2-12 months)

**Est. time commitment:** 3-8 hours per week

**Timezone:** UTC-7

**Skills Required:** Software Engineering, Game Development, Three.js

**Application Deadline:** 07/01/2026

Repost: Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

Millions of animals are used in experiments every year to test chemicals for regulatory requirements, including chemicals that have already been shown to be safe. The Physicians Committee is working to change that.

We are proud to collaborate with Insilica, a computational modeling company whose tool ToxIndex aggregates more than 100 billion data points and 115 million regulatory documents, allowing scientists to obtain required regulatory data without a single animal experiment. The Physicians Committee welcomed Insilica as a sponsor of our 2026 Summer Immersion on Innovative Approaches in Science and has partnered with the company to train regulators on how to review and accept nonanimal submissions with confidence.

Through our NURA, ERA21, and Summer Immersion programs, we are helping build the infrastructure that makes animal-free science the norm, not the exception.

I, John Thomas, (@thebodybuildingvegan), recently went to a slaughterhouse vigil in Orlando, FL, with my best friend Alex (u/yourveganmentor1), to livestream it with @itsmelandsteve and @itsprojectlivestream - to spread awareness for what happens in factory farms and to document that these animals once existed.

We had the honor to meet and say goodbye to Annabelle, before she went inside to be slaughtered.

We’ll never forget Annabelle.

She’s one of the unlucky ones who was a dairy cow and got sent to slaughter along with around 14 other cows like her. We can only hope that she’s finally at peace now.
