Before she came to Farm Sanctuary, this one-of-a-kind bird was kept on a farm touted as “humane.” In truth, she and nearly 200 other animals were severely neglected.
Lizzie’s harrowing past affects her mobility — but with specialized care for her arthritis, she’s thriving. In our care, Lizzie will never again be left to suffer.
Now, Lizzie hangs out with friends Dulce and Zuzu turkeys, and makes her caregivers laugh with her fun loving ways. Nesting boxes? Lizzie lays under them, not on them! Lizzie enjoys each day on her own terms, and we love to see it.
Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt a Turkey Project is a tradition as old as our founding. Since 1986, we’ve supported compassionate holiday traditions — empowering thousands to adopt a turkey instead of eating one. Join us today and build a kinder world for all living beings.
To show our appreciation, we’ll send you an adoption certificate — your choice of digital or print (shown below) — featuring photos of Lizzie and her rescue story.
Place this year’s card at the center of your holiday table to celebrate turkeys like Lizzie. Or send “The Free Spirit” of the flock to your loved ones to help others celebrate kindness this season.
Stories like Lizzie’s reveal the truth about inhumane animal agribusiness. This is why we continue to rescue animals like Lizzie and raise awareness of the lives they can lead when offered sanctuary.
Thank you for making this lifesaving work possible and considering our compassionate holiday tradition.
With love and gratitude,
Farm Sanctuary
