Dear Friend,

Can you imagine a beloved animal being bludgeoned to death? Having their throat slit? Choking on their own blood?

Tragically, that's the fate of many pigs—animals who are as friendly, loyal, and intelligent as any dog or cat you may share your home with—and they're being condemned by the millions to be violently killed for their flesh.

Right now, you can help take on the industries condemning pigs to a life of misery and abuse. Will you give just $5 or more to PETA today to help pigs and create a more compassionate world for ALL animals?

If they were allowed to live out their days freely, pigs would spend hours playing, lying in the sun, and using their powerful sense of smell to explore their surroundings, much like a beloved family dog.

Instead, these outgoing animals spend their lives confined in cramped, filthy conditions. Mothers are forcibly impregnated until their bodies give out, while their piglets are condemned to a gruesome death.

At just a few months old, pigs are crowded into trucks and sent to slaughterhouses. There, the breakneck pace and improper stunning methods will leave many still conscious as they're dumped into tanks of scalding-hot water.

Friend, no pig—no animal—should endure such misery and violence. Please, donate just $5 or more to PETA right now to help spare pigs and all other animals.

In many places, it's illegal to abuse and kill dogs and cats like this—yet people turn away when the victims are pigs, cows, chickens, or other animals. I'm grateful that as a kind PETA supporter, you know that all living, feeling beings deserve our empathy, compassion, and respect.

PETA's work to distribute free resources promoting a vegan lifestyle, expose the suffering within slaughterhouses, and inform the public through groundbreaking ad campaigns is turning the tide toward a kinder world.

But to keep changing hearts and minds worldwide, we need your help. Make a donation to PETA now to boost our work for pigs and other animals.

Pigs on farms are just like the animal companions we love and share our homes with. They are just like us.

Thank you for helping to create a more compassionate world for pigs and all other animals.

Kind regards,

Ingrid E. Newkirk
