John,

BREAKING: Spain could become the first country in the world to ban octopus factory farms — if we act now.

Octopuses are among the most intelligent and sensitive animals on Earth. But seafood companies want to raise them in barren tanks and freeze them alive, all for profit.

Lawmakers in Spain are considering a bold proposal to ban octopus farming before it begins. If passed, it would stop the octopus farming industry in its tracks. But we need massive public pressure to make it happen.

Tell Spain: Ban octopus farming now.

It sounds like a dystopian nightmare, but it’s real. Spanish seafood giants plan to farm up to a million octopuses a year, freezing them alive and carrying out gruesome experiments. One company, Grupo Profand, has even opened a lab to experiment on baby octopuses in an attempt to crack the code for industrial-scale production.

These aren’t isolated cases — they’re the beginning of a dangerous new industry. And unless strong laws are passed these factory farms will keep popping up.

Let’s show decision-makers in Spain that people from around the world are calling for a ban on this cruelty. Can you sign and share this petition with animal lovers everywhere?

Tell Spanish lawmakers: Ban octopus farming.

When California banned octopus farms, our public pressure helped make it happen. Now we have the chance to do it again and make history, and stop this industry before it spreads.
