Mission and Program Overview
Mission
Mercy for Animals (MFA) is dedicated to preventing cruelty to farmed animals and promoting compassionate food choices and policies.
Major Activities
- Activity 2
- Cruelty investigations. Over the last year, mfa's cruelty investigations department exposed christensen farms, a pork supplier, and found rampant animal abuse including workers slamming baby piglets into the floor and mutilating their bodies without painkillers. Mfa conducted an investigation of bettencourt dairies, where we captured footage of sick and injured cows left untreated; workers hitting, kicking, and otherwise abusing the cows; and a downed cow, unable to walk, being pulled by her neck with a tractor. Mfa also completed several other investigations, including one of a butterball turkey factory farm, which led to national media attention on the important issue of farmed animal welfare and food safety.
- Activity 3
- Legal advocacy. Mfa's legal advocacy department secured the first-ever felony conviction for cruelty to factory-farmed poultry in the united states as a result of an investigation of a butterball turkey facility in north carolina. Mfa's legal team also successfully obtained the conviction of an individual running an illegal backyard slaughter operation in los angeles county; and secured 21 counts of animal cruelty against the owner and 7 employees of ontario livestock sales in california.
