These turkeys have become genetically manipulated to grow abnormally fast and live their entire lives in agony. </span></p> <p><b>Sign the petition to demand the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) ban the artificial growth of turkeys and commit to improving animal welfare! </b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Imagine being forced to support a body too large for your legs, every step causing excruciating pain. For many of these turkeys, lying down provides no relief due to the harsh surfaces of their enclosures that create horrible sores and injuries. </span><b>It's a life of constant pain, where even the act of standing is a struggle.</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In facilities across the nation, millions of these birds are bred to suffer. Every year, countless young turkeys die in horrible pain – deaths considered merely collateral by an industry fixated on cutting costs.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We have to demand a change. </span><b>We deserve to sit down at our Thanksgiving dinner knowing that our food was produced humanely. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">The USDA has the power and the responsibility to intervene.</span></p> <p><b>Sign the petition to demand the USDA to introduce and enforce regulations that allow turkeys to live natural lives without pain!</b></p></div><a href="#" class="sign_petition_jump hide_from_unsigned">Sign Petition</a><div class="share hide_from_unsigned" data-url="https://www.thepetitionsite.com/972/241/276/help-end-the-torture-of-millions-of-turkeys-in-the-u.s./"data-system_key="972241276"data-system="6"><a href="#" class="facebook"><span class="desktop">SHARE</span><span class="mobile">Share With Friends</span></a><a href="#" class="twitter">TWEET</a><a href="#" class="email">EMAIL</a></div><div id="signatures" class="hide_from_unsigned"></div><a href="#" class="sign_petition_jump hide_from_unsigned">Sign Petition</a><div id="categorylinks" class="hide_from_unsigned"><strong>See more petitions:</strong><ul><li><a href="/animal-rights/" class="categoryForPixel">Animal Rights</a></li></ul></div><div id="form-col" class="col"><div id="javascript_required">You have JavaScript disabled.
